Abstract:Purpose
To evaluate the effect of trabeculectomy (Trab MMC) on visual field (VF) progression in eyes with glaucoma and high myopia.
Patients and Methods
Patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma or exfoliation glaucoma who underwent Trab MMC as the first glaucoma surgery along with ≥3 VF tests preoperatively and postoperatively were enrolled. High myopia was defined as an axial length ≥26.5 mm. Postoperative reductions in intraocular pressure (IOP) were assess… Show more
