    Hyaluronic acid improves safety in glaucoma microsurgery by maintaining tissue separation, reducing complications. This viscous substance enhances surgical control and outcomes, though further research is needed.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Microsurgery
    • Biomaterials

    Background:

    • Glaucoma microsurgery requires precise tissue separation to prevent complications.
    • Maintaining space between dissected layers is crucial for surgical success and patient safety.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of hyaluronic acid in facilitating and maintaining tissue separation during glaucoma microsurgery.
    • To assess the impact of hyaluronic acid on surgical control, safety, and complication rates in glaucoma procedures.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing hyaluronic acid as a viscoelastic agent during glaucoma microsurgery.
    • Observing the effects of hyaluronic acid on tissue layer separation and space maintenance.
    • Comparing complication rates and surgical control with and without hyaluronic acid.

    Main Results:

    • Hyaluronic acid effectively facilitates and maintains separation of dissected structures.
    • Goniotomy procedures were observed to be more easily controlled and safer when using hyaluronic acid.
    • The substance helped enlarge newly created spaces and reduced adhesive forces between tissue layers.

    Conclusions:

    • Hyaluronic acid enhances the safety of glaucoma microsurgery and reduces the complication rate.
    • High elastic viscous substances like hyaluronic acid offer improved technical possibilities in microsurgery.
    • Further clinical experience is necessary to fully ascertain the long-term advantages of hyaluronic acid in this context.
