Surgery for refractory glaucoma

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Ophthalmology, 1996
Abstract Purpose:To determine the surgical outcome of mitomycin trabeculectomy in patients with refractory glaucoma. Methods:Sixty‐six eyes of 52 patients with refractory glaucoma underwent mitomycin trabeculectomy. Mitomycin was applied for five minutes only once during trabeculectomy. The follow‐up period was six to 61 months.

Outcomes of Sequential Glaucoma Drainage Implants in Refractory Glaucoma

Journal of Glaucoma, 2016
To describe the outcomes of eyes that have undergone a second glaucoma drainage implant (GDI) surgery.A retrospective review of eyes that underwent a second GDI surgery from 2006 to 2013 was conducted. Primary outcome measures included intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction and success rates.

Management of refractory glaucoma in childhood

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2002
Glaucoma in children is characterized by marked intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation with resultant atrophy of the optic nerve and loss of retinal ganglion cells. In very young children, secondary expansion of the globe with damage to anterior segment structures, such as the cornea and zonule, often occurs.

Molteno implant surgery in refractory glaucoma

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1990
In recent years aqueous drainage implants have become a useful adjuvant in the treatment of refractory glaucomas. The Molteno implant is one of the most widely used devices for providing a permanent channel of aqueous flow from the anterior chamber to a collecting reservoir in the posterior subconjunctival space.

Transscleral Diode Laser Photocoagulation in Refractory Glaucoma

Ophthalmologica, 2001
<i>Background and Objective:</i> Patients with glaucoma refractory to medical or surgical treatment are difficult to treat. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of contact transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (DLPC) on these patients’ intra-ocular pressure (IOP) and visual acuity.

Membrane-tube-type glaucoma shunt device for refractory glaucoma surgery

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2016
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel membrane-tube (MT)-type glaucoma shunt device for refractory glaucoma surgery. The device consists of an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membranous reservoir, as well as a silicone tube (300-μm external and 200-μm internal diameter) with an intraluminal stent.
