Surgical Results of Trabeculectomy and Ahmed Valve Implantation Following a Previous Failed Trabeculectomy in Primary Congenital Glaucoma Patients
PURPOSE To compare the surgical results of trabeculectomy and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation after a previous failed trabeculectomy. METHODS A retrospective comparative case series review was performed on 31 eye surgeries in 20 patients with primary congenital glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy or Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation after a previous failed trabeculectomy with mitomycin C....
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanical Changes Following Trabeculectomy, Phaco-trabeculectomy, Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation and Phacoemulsification
PURPOSE To determine corneal biomechanical changes following major glaucoma procedures. METHODS In a prospective comparative case series, corneal biomechanical properties were assessed using the Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA, Reichert Inc., Depew, New York, USA) before and 3 months after surgery in 89 eyes of 89 patients undergoing trabeculectomy + mitomycin C (MMC) (23 eyes, group 1), phacot...
متن کاملTrabeculectomy versus Ahmed Glaucoma Valve implantation in neovascular glaucoma
PURPOSE To compare surgical outcomes in neovascular glaucoma patients who underwent trabeculectomy with mitomycin C versus Ahmed Glaucoma Valve implantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective comparative case series. We reviewed 40 eyes of 39 patients with underlying diagnosis of neovascular glaucoma, divided into two groups: Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (N = 20) and trabeculectomy with m...
متن کاملIntraocular 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 کاملOutcomes of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation in advanced primary congenital glaucoma with previous surgical failure
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intermediate surgical results of Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) implantation in patients less than 7 years of age, with advanced primary congenital glaucoma who have failed previous surgeries. PATIENTS AND METHODS Consecutive patients with advanced primary congenital glaucoma that failed previous operations and had undergone subsequent AGV imp...
