Long-term outcomes of initial trabeculectomy in glaucoma associated with granulomatous and non-granulomatous uveitis

To evaluate the outcomes of initial trabeculectomy in granulomatous and non-granulomatous uveitis. Retrospective comparative study 68 eyes that underwent an trabeculectomy. The mean follow-up was 74.18 74.86 months both groups (p = 0.95). intraocular pressure decreased from 40.03 mmHg ( ± 7.2) 36.48 11.3) to 14.00 6.2) 13.48 5.7), number medications 3.73 0.7) 3.58 0.9) 1.00 1.4) 1.13 on last < 0.01) groups, respectively. More uveitis group developed delayed postoperative complications like cataract, transient hypotony glaucoma progression. Success rates were 64.9 71.0%, while failure 35.1 29.0% 0.84). Trabeculectomy seems have comparable IOP control survival Nevertheless, more late-onset complications.
