Methods: Twenty six patients with open-angle glaucoma in aphakia or pseudophakia whose IOP was uncontrolled on maximal tolerated medical therapy and who were thus candidates展开更多

Methods: Change in IOP and the number of medications required to control IOP were determined following pha-coemulsification in 58 OAG (POAG and PXF glaucoma) and 287 normal eyes. Follow up period ranged from 12 to 40 months.展开更多

Methods: Prospective study of 7 patients who underwent diode laser bleb revision. Results: Seven eyes of 7 patients were analyzed. All patients had an oversized bleb and an associated late-onset leaking bleb. Diode laser energy using the G probe was applied to the bleb to close the leak. In four eyes two laser treatments were required to seal the leak. Af-展开更多
