Abstract:
Argon laser suture lysis is a valuable adjunct for regulating intraocular pressure and establishing a filtration bleb in the early postoperative period after trabeculectomy. We have developed a lens that provides excellent compression of the conjunctiva, an improved view of scleral flap sutures, and effortless retraction of the upper lid.
