Abstract:
A new and simple technique for glaucoma filtering surgery is presented. It is based on the introduction of a stainless steel microspiral or gonioseton into a goniopuncture by way of an ab interno procedure, minimising surgical trauma to the filtration area. Preliminary results are presented.
