Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to identify risk factors for increased intraocular pressure (IOP) after a specific eye surgery called KDB trabeculotomy in patients with exfoliation glaucoma (EXG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).
- The results showed significant postoperative IOP increases, with over half of the patients experiencing IOP higher than 20 mmHg, and various factors like age, preoperative medication, and initial IOP levels were linked to these increases.
- The findings suggest that while the surgery is generally effective, specific patient characteristics may lead to higher risks of IOP spikes or elevated pressure post-surgery.
