Prcis: Deep sclerectomy (DS) and canaloplasty provide better intraocular pressure (IOP) control than viscocanalostomy. DS required less glaucoma medications but more interventions to reach target IOP.
Purpose: To compare real-world outcomes of three non-penetrating glaucoma surgery (NPGS) techniques.
Purpose: To examine the generalizability, discuss limitations, and critically appraise recommendations on the management of primary angle-closure suspects (PACSs) that emerged as a result of recent randomized clinical trials challenging the widely accepted clinical practice of offering laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) to PACS patients. To synthetize findings from these and other studies.
Design: Narrative review.
Background: The use of adjunctive intraoperative mitomycin C has considerably improved the success rate of glaucoma filtering surgery. However, the ideal concentration and exposure time of mitomycin C is unknown. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a satisfactory surgical outcome can be achieved with a lower incidence of adverse side effects by using a shorter exposure time of mitomycin C than has been recommended previously.
