In this episode, Dr Blumenthal and I discuss the not so obvious technique of peripheral laser iridotomy, emphasizing the shift away from the 12 o'clock position to a temporal location for most patients. We discuss the rationale for this shift, that includes the dramatic reduction in photopsias, as well as some tips and tricks in performing this technique.

This episode was recorded live in June 2011 during the joint meeting of the Canadian Glaucoma Society and the Canadian Ophthalmological Society annual meeting using a Shure SM58 microphone with a Marantz PMD661 digital recorder. It is finally seeing the light of day after I've been side-tracked with too many other projects. Mixing, editing, and sound levelling were completed in February 2013 on a MacPro, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air using Levelator, Fission, and Garage Band. Narration was overdubbed using a Blue Microphone Yeti and a Heil PR40 Microphone. Final editing was completed February 2013.
