Achieving Target Pressures with Combined Surgery: Primary Patchless Ahmed Valve Combined with Phacoemulsification vs Primary Phacotrabeculectomy
PURPOSE To evaluate the ability of phacoemulsification combined with either primary trabeculectomy (PT) or primary Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation (PAVI) to achieve target intraocular pressures (TIOP) in adults with primary open angle glaucoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Chart review of 214 adult patients operated between January 2002 and June 2008 with a minimum follow-up of 6 months. Group 1 c...
متن کاملPhacoemulsification Alone versus Phacoemulsification Combined with Trabeculectomy for Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma
Surgical outcomes of phacoemulsification only and phacoemulsification combined with trabeculectomy were compared in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). Clinical records of 41 consecutive patients were retrospectively reviewed, and there was no difference in best-corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure preoperatively and at the final follow-up in both study groups. Rega...
متن کاملCombined phacoemulsification and Ahmed valve glaucoma drainage implant: a retrospective case series.
PURPOSE To report on the efficacy and safety of combined phacoemulsification and an Ahmed valve glaucoma drainage implant with respect to visual acuity improvement, intraocular pressure (IOP) control, and requirement for antiglaucoma medication. METHODS A retrospective chart review was conducted of 41 eyes (31 patients) with coexisting visually significant cataracts and uncontrolled glaucoma ...
متن کاملCombined phacoemulsification and viscogoniosynechialysis in primary angle-closure glaucoma
The treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) at an early stage prevents a proportion of PACG-related blindness. Several techniques are available with different degrees of success. Trabeculectomy augmented by antifibrotic agents represents the mainstay of glaucoma surgery, but safety and efficacy are suboptimal; phacotrabeculectomy is associated with more postoperative complications; a...
متن کاملSmall-incision phacotrabeculectomy versus phacoemulsification in refractory acute primary angle closure with cataract
BACKGROUND Acute primary angle closure (PAC) can be refractory to conventional treatment and intraocular pressure (IOP) is beyond control. Surgical intervention should be considered at the moment. The aim of the study was to compare small-incision phacotrabeculectomy (phacotrab, small-incision trabeculectomy combined with phacoemulsification) with phacoemulsification (phaco) in patients with re...
