Glaucoma drainage implants in Asian eyes
Ophthalmology, 1998Previous studies have suggested that there are racial differences in the outcome of conventional filtration surgery. This study aims to evaluate the outcome of glaucoma drainage implants in Asian eyes with complicated glaucoma and to determine whether there are racial differences in the results of such implant surgery compared to previous reports in ...

Glaucoma Drainage Implant Surgery
2012Glaucoma drainage implant (GDI) surgery represents a significant advance in the treatment of refractory glaucomas. Recent randomized clinical trials have compared the efficacy and safety of this technique to standard trabeculectomy. Several types of implant are currently available and differ in surface area, shape, composition, and the presence or ...

Glaucoma Drainage Implants in Pediatric Patients
Ophthalmology Clinics of North America, 2005Approximately, one fifth of primary congenital glaucoma patients fail primary surgery. Also, some pediatric glaucomas respond poorly to goniotomy or trabeculectomy. In these situations, clinicians often choose trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C or a drainage implant as a surgical treatment.

Implantation of a second glaucoma drainage device
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2017To evaluate success rates in controlling intraocular pressure (IOP) after implantation of a second glaucoma drainage device (GDD) with a Baerveldt glaucoma implant in patients with refractory glaucoma, with a secondary aim of reducing the need for postoperative glaucoma medications.This retrospective, noncomparative, interventional study included ...

Epithelial Ingrowth and Glaucoma Drainage Implants
Ophthalmology, 1994The authors report four cases of conjunctival epithelial invasion into the fibrous capsule surrounding a Baerveldt glaucoma implant. All cases were associated with concurrent or recent prior scleral buckling surgery.Three patients had postoperative conjunctival wound leaks, one in the immediate postoperative period and the other two at 9 and 17 days ...

Morphology of glaucoma drainage implantation
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1997Implantation of glaucoma drainage devices has become a standard procedure in various forms of intractable glaucoma. Indications include extensive conjunctival scanning at the upper limbal area, neovascular glaucoma (in addition to pars plana vitrectomy and endolasercoagulation), and secondary glaucoma due to uveitis or trauma.

Complications of Glaucoma Drainage Implant Surgery
International Ophthalmology Clinics, 2000Glaucoma drainage implants play an important role in the management of refractory glaucoma. It may be considered as a primary procedure in eyes with severe scarring of the conjunctiva and the limbus, neovascularization, multiple previous, failed filtering procedures, and severely glaucomatous eyes for which corneal graft is planned.
