Declarations of interest

MM reports receiving payment for educational courses on methodology and glaucoma diagnostic accuracy from Polifarma and Santen. As a member of the International Glaucoma Panel (Allergan), mentored by Prof. David Garway‐Heath, MM has received travel accommodations and meeting expenses for three ARVO meetings (2015 ‐ 2017).

Cyclodestructive procedures for glaucoma

Differences between protocol and review

In the protocol (Jones 2011), the authors planned to include randomized and quasi‐randomized controlled trials. However, we identified no quasi‐randomized controlled trials, and will not consider quasi‐randomized controlled trials in future updates to this review.

We included a 'Summary of findings' table and GRADE assessments in this review, neither of which were required under Cochrane standards at the time of the protocol.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Summary of findings for the main comparison. Low‐ versus high‐energy diode trans‐scleral cyclophotocoagulation for non‐refractory glaucoma

Low‐ versus high‐energy diode transscleralcyclophotocoagulation for non‐refractory glaucoma

Population: people with primary open‐angle glaucoma and no previous glaucoma surgery

Settings: ophthalmology clinics

Intervention: low energy; 1.5 watts for 1.5 seconds x 20 spots over 360 ° (45.0 J)

Comparison: high energy; 1.25 watts for 2.5 seconds x 20 spots over 360 ° (62.5 J)

Atonic pupil was the only adverse event reported by treatment group. Trial authors noted that most participants had mild to moderate pain for a few days following the procedure and many also had transient conjunctival burns (number not reported). Severe iritis occurred in 2 eyes and hyphema occurred in 3 eyes. No instances of hypotony or phthisis bulbi were reported

*All outcomes are reported for participants with at least 3 months follow‐up; mean follow‐up was 13.2 months.
**The basis for the assumed risk is the risk in the comparison group. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
J: joule; CI: confidence interval; RR: risk ratio; mmHg: millimeter of mercury

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

1Downgraded for risk of bias in the trial (unmasked outcome assessors and 14% attrition).
2Downgraded for imprecision in the effect estimate (wide confidence interval).
