Effects of topical bevacizumab application on early bleb failure after trabeculectomy: observational case series
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of topical bevacizumab on the formation and function of filtering blebs in eyes with early bleb failure after antiglaucoma surgery.
