Changes in Corneal Endothelial Cell after Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation and Trabeculectomy: 1-Year Follow-up
PURPOSE To compare changes in corneal endothelial cell density (CECD) after Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) implantation and trabeculectomy. METHODS Changes in corneal endothelium in patients that underwent AGV implantation or trabeculectomy were prospectively evaluated. Corneal specular microscopy was performed at the central cornea using a non-contact specular microscope before surgery and 6 mon...
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanical Changes Following Trabeculectomy, Phaco-trabeculectomy, Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation and Phacoemulsification
PURPOSE To determine corneal biomechanical changes following major glaucoma procedures. METHODS In a prospective comparative case series, corneal biomechanical properties were assessed using the Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA, Reichert Inc., Depew, New York, USA) before and 3 months after surgery in 89 eyes of 89 patients undergoing trabeculectomy + mitomycin C (MMC) (23 eyes, group 1), phacot...
متن کاملTrabeculectomy versus Ahmed Glaucoma Valve implantation in neovascular glaucoma
PURPOSE To compare surgical outcomes in neovascular glaucoma patients who underwent trabeculectomy with mitomycin C versus Ahmed Glaucoma Valve implantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective comparative case series. We reviewed 40 eyes of 39 patients with underlying diagnosis of neovascular glaucoma, divided into two groups: Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (N = 20) and trabeculectomy with m...
متن کاملCorneal endothelial cell changes after Ahmed valve and Molteno glaucoma implants.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Changes in corneal endothelial cell (CEC) indices 24 months after Ahmed valve (New World Medical, Inc., Rancho Cucamonga, CA) and single-plate Molteno implants (Molteno Ophthalmic Limited, Dunedin, New Zealand) were evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS This cohort included Ahmed valve (29 eyes) or single-plate Molteno (28 eyes) implants. Preoperative and postoperative cent...
متن کاملChanges of corneal endothelial cell density after EX-PRESS® Glaucoma shunt implantation: 2-year follow-up study
Purpose: To evaluate effects of the EX-PRESS® glaucoma filtering device on the corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) in eyes with open angle glaucoma (OAG). Designs: A prospective, non-comparative study. Methods: We prospectively evaluated the changes in the ECD, hexagonality, and coefficient of variation (CV) in 20 eyes of 19 patients who had an implantation of the EX-PRESS®. The type of glau...
