Surgery for Refractory Glaucoma

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1987
A consecutive series of 55 eyes of 50 patients who received silicone tube implant surgery is reviewed. Seven patients had neovascular glaucoma and 43 had refractory nonneovascular glaucoma, for which previous surgery was unsuccessful. A minimum follow-up of one year (mean, 18 months) was achieved for 30 eyes of 30 patients.
