Non-Penetrating Glaucoma Filtering Surgery-An overview
Trabeculectomy remains the standard surgery for intraocular pressure control for glaucoma. It involves a full thickness penetration of sclera, to allow aqueous seepage to subconjunctival space under a scleral flap. However, it carries the risk of serious bleb related complications like overfiltration, hypotony and consequent persistent choroidal detachment, shallow anterior chamber, cataract, p...

متن کاملPrimary open-angle glaucoma
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is an idiopathic disorder in which the resistance to outflow through the trabecular meshwork gradually increases and the intraocular pressure (IOP) rises, causing irreversible damage to the optic nerve POAG is the second most common cause of vision loss in the U.S. Usually asymptomatic until advanced visual field loss has occurred; less than 50% of those...
