PURPOSE To evaluate long-term outcomes and identify prognostic factors of trabeculectomy following intraocular bevacizumab injection for neovascular glaucoma. METHODS Sixty-one eyes of 54 patients with neovascular glaucoma treated by trabeculectomy following intraocular bevacizumab injection were consecutively enrolled. Surgical success criteria were sufficient intraocular pressure (IOP) redu...

Purpose. Cyclectomy/trabeculectomy and Ahmed glaucoma valve implant are operations suggested for refractory glaucomas. In this study, we have evaluated the outcomes that we observed with these two techniques in neovascular glaucoma patients. Material and Methods. Thirty-five eyes with neovascular glaucomas were included in this study. Ahmed Glaucoma valve (group A) was applied to ten eyes, whil...

BACKGROUND/AIMS To describe the long term results of cases of cataract extraction combined with either Molteno implant insertion or trabeculectomy for primary open angle glaucoma. METHODS This prospective case series followed cases which had cataract extraction and Molteno implant insertion (45 eyes) or trabeculectomy (94 eyes) followed up for a mean of 5.3 years and 3.9 years respectively. ...

Aim: To compare the long term mean intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction after non-augmented single site phacotrabeculectomy with that after trabeculectomy and to determine the relation between preoperative IOP and IOP reduction. Methods: A group of 44 consecutive patients with chronic open angle glaucoma who underwent phacotrabeculectomy were matched to a trabeculectomy control group and the re...

Abstract Background We aimed to compare the outcomes of trabeculectomy combined with phacoemulsification and those followed by phacoemulsification. Methods A total 141 patients primary open-angle glaucoma, exfoliation glaucoma secondary uveitis who underwent ( n = 48) or 93) were included. analyzed data collected from Collaborative Bleb-Related Infection Incidence Treatment Study, a prospective...

Purpose: To determine the success of combined trabeculotomy and trabeculectomy with application Mitomycin C in primary congenital glaucoma. Study Design: Interventional case series. Place Duration Study: Mughal eye hospital Lahore from January 2018 to December 2019. Methods: Twenty-four patients glaucoma were included. Secondary corneal haze excluded. Corneal diameter above 11.5, 12.5 13 mm (wh...

PURPOSE To investigate whether specific glaucoma surgeries are associated with differences in aqueous humor protein concentrations compared to eyes without filters. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, aqueous humor samples were prospectively collected from control subjects who underwent routine cataract surgery (n=14) and from patients who had different glaucoma filters: Baerveldt aqueous ...

PURPOSE Compare the efficacy and safety profile of viscocanalostomy versus trabeculectomy in uncontrolled glaucoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS We looked through various search engines for randomized controlled trials directly comparing viscocanalostomy with trabeculectomy. Outcome measurements we examined were mean intraocular pressure difference at 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months, mean differen...
