Are There Filtering Blebs After Canaloplasty?

Journal of Glaucoma, 2011
Aim of the study was to assess the development of filtering blebs after canaloplasty.Twenty eyes of 20 consecutive patients receiving canaloplasty were included. All eyes were examined clinically (slit lamp), and by anterior segment optical coherence tomography and high-frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy to detect filtering blebs.

Revision of dysfunctional filtering blebs by conjunctival advancement with bleb preservation

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2000
To assess the outcome of advancing a conjunctival flap with preservation of the bleb in eyes undergoing filtration bleb revision after trabeculectomy.A retrospective review of cases from a university-based referral practice identified 30 eyes of 30 patients that had undergone bleb revision after trabeculectomy by advancement of a conjunctival flap over

Surgical repair of leaking filtering blebs

Ophthalmology, 2000
To report the surgical management of leaking filtering blebs occurring after blebitis or persistent hypotony.Retrospective, noncomparative case series.Twenty-two eyes of 20 patients with late bleb leak, blebitis or endophthalmitis, hypotony maculopathy, or bleb dysesthesia on presentation to the glaucoma service who required surgical bleb revision from

Surgical Management of a Dysfunctional Filtering Bleb

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2002
Abstract. This case report presents a patient who developed a large overhanging bleb following antimetabolite trabeculectomy surgery 6 years prior. Complaints included decreasing vision and foreign body sensation for several months. Successful excisional surgery with placement of compression sutures was performed. Visual acuity and intraocular pressure

Lensectomy and vitrectomy in the presence of filtering blebs

International Ophthalmology, 1987
We describe a technique for preserving a filtering bleb in glaucoma patients undergoing pars plana lensectomy and vitrectomy. It involves making a conjunctival incision away from the filtering site and injecting the anterior chamber and bleb with (hyaluronic acid) Healon before vitreous surgery is begun.

The Failing Filtering Bleb

Ophthalmology Clinics of North America, 2000
Blebs fail when the conditions necessary for their continued existence cease to exist. They need a steady flow of aqueous humor to maintain a passageway at the outer edge of the scleral fistula and to distend the interstitial space within the bleb or else connective tissue cells in the episclera and Tenon's capsule may bridge across and fill in those ...

The surgical management of leaking filtering blebs

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1999
Leaking blebs may be encountered in the early postoperative period, or months to years after filtering surgery. Early postoperative bleb leaks are most often related to surgical trauma to the conjunctiva and can be avoided by careful surgical technique. Spontaneous late bleb leaks occur more frequently in glaucoma filtering surgery following adjunctive

An Unusual Complication of a Postcataract Filtering Bleb

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1997
Abstract. Inadvertent blebs are sometimes encountered after cataract surgery using sutured limbal incisions. A number of surgical techniques have been described in the planned management of such blebs. Occasionally, an intraoperative bleb rupture may occur. The authors describe a rotational scleral autograft technique that can help in the management of

Remodeling Filtering Blebs with the Neodymium:YAG Laser

Ophthalmology, 1996
To describe a new method of treating large, overfiltering, leaking blebs using a continuous-wave neodymium:YAG laser.Twenty-three eyes of 23 patients underwent YAG laser remodeling because of overfiltration and hypotony (group 1; n = 14); leaking bleb and hypotony (group 2; n = 5); and large, irritating bleb (group 3; n = 4).
