Surgical Outcomes of Different Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation Methods between Scleral Graft and Scleral Flap
PURPOSE To compare the surgical outcomes of the two different methods used for Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) implantation between the donor scleral graft method and the partial-thickness scleral flap method. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 28 eyes of 26 patients diagnosed as neovascular glaucoma followed by AGV implantation. Based on the surgical method, the included eyes ...
متن کاملSurgical Technique: Pars Plana Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation
The pars plana model of the Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) is inserted into the vitreous cavity through a sclerostomy, and has a specially designed clip anchors that it in place and avoids tube kinking. The tube deliver aqueous from within the eye to the episcleral plate covered by Tenon’s capsule and conjunctiva, which stimulates fibrovascular encapsulation around the plate. This article elucidate...

متن کاملAhmed glaucoma valve implant: surgical technique and complications
Implantation of Ahmed glaucoma valve is an effective surgical technique to reduce intraocular pressure in patients affected with glaucoma. While in the past, the use of this device was reserved to glaucoma refractory to multiple filtration surgical procedures, up-to-date mounting experience has encouraged its use also as a primary surgery for selected cases. Implantation of Ahmed glaucoma valve...
