Insertion of a foldable hydrophobic IOL through the trabeculectomy fistula in cases with Microincision cataract surgery combined with trabeculectomy
BACKGROUND The use of conventional foldable hydrophobic intraocular lenses (IOLs) in microincision cataract surgery (MICS) currently requires wound enlargement. We describe a combined surgical technique of MICS and trabeculectomy with insertion of a foldable IOL through the trabeculectomy fistula. METHODS After completion of MICS through two side port incisions, a 3.2 mm keratome is used to e...
متن کاملCombined Phaco Trabeculectomy Vs Combined ECCE Trabeculectomy with IOL Implantation
Results: Postoperative IOP in both groups fell significantly (P=<0.05) below the preoperative medically controlled IOP. At initial 2 months postoperative IOP was almost similar in bothgroups (mean IOP in phacotrab group was 11 mm Hg vs mean IOP in ECCE trab group as 13 mm Hg i.e P= >.050). At 12 months, the IOP in phacotrab group was lower than ECCE trab group. Postoperative visual recovery was...
متن کاملComparison of PMMA, foldable silicone and foldable acrylic hydrophobic intraocular lenses in combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy.
PURPOSE To compare the postoperative results of phacotrabeculectomy with implantation of PMMA, foldable silicone or foldable hydrofobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL). SETTING Glaucoma unit, The Royal Liverpool University Hospital, Liverpool, United Kingdom. METHODS We studied a total of 124 eyes of three consecutive groups of patients with glaucoma and cataract that underwent phacotrabecul...
متن کاملCataract surgery after trabeculectomy: the effect on trabeculectomy function.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether the timing of cataract surgery after trabeculectomy has an effect on trabeculectomy function in terms of intraocular pressure control. METHODS This was a cohort study nested within a randomized clinical trial. There were 235 participants with glaucoma who had a single previous trabeculectomy augmented with either intraoperative 5-fluorouracil or placebo. Catarac...
متن کاملTrabeculectomy with fistula formation
Operations on the trabecular meshwork in order to reduce raised intraocular pressure are receiving increasing prominence. Redmond Smith (i960) opened the trabecular tissue by passing a nylon thread along the canal of Schlemm via an ab externo incision, and by a further incision and by picking up the distal end of the thread, he ruptured the trabecular meshwork by pulling on the thread like a bo...
