Abstract:
This case report outlines the successful management of angle recession (AR) with gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT). A 53-year-old man with a history of blunt trauma to the left eye resulting in AR presented with an IOP of 38 mm Hg on 4 antiglaucoma agents. After GATT, a notable reduction in IOP to 10 mm Hg was observed on the first postoperative day. Subsequent 1-year follow-up visits demonstrated sustained improvement, with IOP stabilizing at 18 mm Hg without the need for antiglaucoma medication. This is the first case report that demonstrates the role of GATT in the management of AR.
