    This study compared two globe incision techniques for cataract extraction after glaucoma filtering surgery. Both ab interno and ab externo incisions yielded similar results for intraocular pressure and complications, with slightly more astigmatism after corneal incisions.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Glaucoma Surgery
    • Cataract Extraction

    Context:

    • Cataract extraction following glaucoma filtering procedures presents unique surgical challenges.
    • Evaluating different globe incision techniques is crucial for optimizing outcomes in these complex cases.

    Purpose:

    • To compare the efficacy and safety of ab interno (corneal) and ab externo (corneoscleral) globe incision techniques for cataract extraction after glaucoma filtering surgery.
    • To analyze postoperative intraocular pressure, complications, and residual astigmatism associated with each technique.

    Summary:

    • The study evaluated 72 cases of cataract extraction post-glaucoma filtering surgery.
    • Two primary techniques were compared: ab interno corneal incisions (45 cases) and ab externo corneoscleral incisions (27 cases).

  • Both methods demonstrated comparable outcomes regarding intraocular pressure and complications, though corneal incisions resulted in slightly higher residual astigmatism.

    • Impact:

    • Findings suggest that both ab interno and ab externo incisions are viable options for cataract extraction after glaucoma surgery.
    • The choice of technique may be influenced by the need to minimize postoperative astigmatism.
    • This research aids surgeons in selecting the optimal approach based on preoperative conditions and potential refractive outcomes.
