Official Title: Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Neodynium:Ytrium-aluminium-garnet (Nd:YAG) Laser and Sequential Double Frequency YAG-Nd:YAG Laser Iridotomy in Patients With Dark Iris

Brief Summary: No single type of laser or set of laser parameters is appropriate for all type of irides. Pure Nd:YAG laser iridotomy is very effective in the light color irides. It was considered as the gold standard for iridotomy. It, however, is less effective and causes some complication such as iris hemorrhage especially in patients with dark iris.
