Design: Retrospective cross-sectional case series.
Method: Within 3 months from VFS measurements by the Humphrey field analyzer 10-2 program, 83 eyes underwent macular GCC thickness measurements by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).
Purpose: Flat anterior chamber (FAC) in association with overfiltration is a complication after trabeculectomy. The aim of the current study was to investigate the efficacy of injection of an ophthalmic viscoelastic device (OVD) to treat FAC after trabeculectomy in a retrospective consecutive case series study.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-five consecutive patients who underwent injection of OVD for the treatment of FAC after trabeculectomy were analyzed.
