Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Children
2019Childhood glaucomas represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for both ophthalmologists and glaucoma specialists, not only because achieving intraocular pressure (IOP) control is difficult but also because some patients may still have poor vision in spite of successful IOP control due to amblyopia, corneal opacities, and/or uncorrected high ...

Pars plana insertion of glaucoma drainage devices for refractory glaucoma
Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2006AbstractBackground: Glaucoma drainage devices are more commonly inserted into the anterior chamber because of the relative ease of this method of insertion. However, in certain cases, posterior placement of the tube may be necessary or may be more desirable.

Simultaneous placement of 2 glaucoma drainage devices for uncontrolled glaucoma
Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014To report baseline characteristics and surgical outcomes of placement of simultaneous glaucoma drainage devices (GDDs) in eyes with considerably elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) despite maximal medical therapy.Retrospective case series.Twelve eyes of 12 patients underwent simultaneous placement of a Baerveldt 350 GDD and an Ahmed S3 GDD in the same ...

[Artificial drainage devices in glaucoma].
Oftalmologia (Bucharest, Romania : 1990), 2000During the last two decades, glaucoma drainage devices (GDD) have been increasingly applied to the treatment of complicated glaucoma in which standard surgical therapy has failed. Most GDD's consist of a segment of silicone rubber attached to a rigid plastic or flexible rubber explant and evolved from the Molteno glaucoma implant, on which clinical ...

[Glaucoma drainage device obstruction].
Archivos de la Sociedad Espanola de Oftalmologia, 2005To determine the pathophysiology and to discuss possible solutions for tube obstruction since this is a frequent complication in glaucoma drainage device surgery.81 eyes with a glaucoma drainage device (GDD) fitted by our Department during the last twelve years (1991-2002) were retrospectively reviewed and eleven cases of tube obstruction were detected.

Glaucoma drainage devices (GDDs) have a fixed place in the treatment of complicated refractory glaucoma. By implantation of an episcleral GDD, a permanent open sclerostomy is formed, through which a silicone tube is placed into the anterior chamber (or pars plana).

[Development of glaucoma drainage device].
[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2010Glaucoma drainage device (GDD) is moderately successful in patients with refractory glaucoma. However, bleb fibrosis appears to be the major cause of long-term GDD failure. In recent years, many researchers tried to explain the cause of fibrosis and its influence on the clinical effects of GDD from histopathological study.
