Abstract Background To explore the efficacy and safety of laser peripheral iridoplasty (LPIp) with different energy levels and locations in the treatment of primary angle closure disease (PACD) assessed by swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). Methods We enrolled patients with PACD following best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), anterior chamber gonioscopy, ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM), optic disc OCT, and visual field examinations. After Pentacam and AS-OCT measurements, the patients were randomly divided into four treatment groups for LPIp with two different energy levels (high vs. low energy) and two locations (far from the periphery vs. near the periphery) and combined with laser peripheral iridotomy. BCVA, IOP, pupil diameter, central anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber volume, anterior opening distance (AOD)500, AOD750, trabecular iris angle (TIA)500, and TIA750 in four quadrants before and after laser treatment were compared. Results We followed up 32 patients (64 eyes; average age, 61.80 ± 9.79 years; 8 patients/16 eyes per group) for up to 2 years. The IOP of all enrolled patients was decreased after surgery compared to that before (t = 3.297, P = 0.002), the volume of the anterior chamber was increased (t=-2.047, P = 0.047), and AOD500, AOD750, TIA500, and TIA750 were increased (all P
