Late-onset Hypotony Maculopathy After Trabeculectomy in a Highly Myopic Patient With Juvenile Open-angle Glaucoma
Hypotony maculopathy is a sight-threatening complication after trabeculectomy. We report on a 34-year-old man with juvenile open-angle glaucoma and high myopia, who developed hypotony maculopathy 14 years after trabeculectomy without bleb leak. This represents the longest known period from trabeculectomy to the development of hypotony maculopathy without bleb leak. The possible mechanisms for t...

متن کاملTrabeculectomy in Nigerian patients with open-angle glaucoma.
Filtering procedures for glaucoma in Africans are considered to be failures owing to their propensity for increased fibrosis. However, favourable results from trabeculectomy in African patients with glaucoma are reported. Most of these are from such modifications of technique as non-suturing of flaps, sclerectomy, posterior lip cautery, or administration of high doses of steroids. In this study...
