Drops are used much more often than surgery to control and bring down eye pressure. Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) or other types of glaucoma surgery is only used when eye pressure cannot be controlled with Trusopt or other eye drops for glaucoma. Sorry, I am unable to find the statistics you would like,
