Trabeculectomy (TE) effectively lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma patients, reducing medication needs. This retrospective analysis of 538 TEs shows sustained IOP reduction over a 1-10 year follow-up.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Glaucoma Surgery
  • Surgical Outcomes

Context:

  • Trabeculectomy (TE) is a common surgical procedure for glaucoma.
  • The study analyzes TE outcomes performed between 1990-2000.
  • Data from 538 TEs were retrospectively and prospectively analyzed.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of trabeculectomy.
  • To assess changes in intraocular pressure (IOP), visual acuity, and medication use post-TE.
  • To analyze the impact of TE as a primary surgical intervention for glaucoma.

Summary:

  • Trabeculectomy significantly reduced average IOP from 28.42 mmHg to 16.53 mmHg.
  • The average number of antiglaucomatous drugs decreased from 1.92 to 0.89 post-surgery.

  • Visual acuity showed initial improvement followed by a slight decrease over the follow-up period.

    • Impact:

    • Trabeculectomy remains a fundamental, accessible surgical technique for IOP reduction in glaucoma.
    • The procedure demonstrates a broad range of indications with a relatively low complication rate.
    • Findings support TE as a primary surgical option, even with non-perforating alternatives available.
