Similar Performance of Trabectome and Ahmed Glaucoma Devices in a Propensity Score-matched Comparison [PDF]
Purpose: To apply propensity score matching to Ahmed glaucoma drainage implants (AGI) to trabectome-mediated ab interno trabeculectomy (AIT). Recent data suggest that AIT can produce results similar to AGI traditionally reserved for more severe glaucoma.
