A glaucoma treatment apparatus including an imaging device capable of imaging the anterior segment of the eye, a treatment laser, an algorithm programmed to determine a location and a cross sectional area of a treatment based on a customized anatomy of the anterior segment of the eye including the trabecular meshwork (TM), the Schlemm's Canal (SC) and collector channels (CCS), obtained from pre-operative images of the anterior segment of the eye, a pre-operative intraocular pressure (IOP) level and a target IOP reduction as an inputs, and a processor configured to actuate the apparatus to create an outflow channel with a cross-sectional area and location or multiple outflow channels with multiple cross-sectional areas and locations from the anterior chamber (AC) to the SC across the TM, as determined by the algorithm to achieve the target intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction. Also disclosed is a method of reducing intraocular pressure in an eye.
