Methods: 8 patients (aged 56-80 years), affected by open angle glaucoma, underwent deep sclerectomy with jaluronic acid implant: a large scleral window (3mmx2mm) was performed in the bed of the scleral lake. Postoperative examinations were per-展开更多

Methods: 83 consecutive patients (83 eyes), recruited from the waiting lists for glaucoma surgery of 8 ophthalmic centers. All the patients were scheduled for surgery because of inefficacy of the MTMT, and/or a progressive deterioration of the visual field.展开更多
