Intraocular Pressure Control after Implantation of an Ahmed Glaucoma Valve in Eyes with a Failed Trabeculectomy
AIM To evaluate the results of Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) in eyes with a failed trabeculectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study evaluated 61 eyes with a failed trabeculectomy that underwent implantation of an AGV due to uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) on maximal medical therapy. Success was defined as IOP ≤ 21 mm Hg (criterion 1) or 20% reduction in IOP (criterion 2) wi...

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...
