Purpose: To evaluate the surgical outcomes and identify ocular and systemic prognostic factors of trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC) in the eyes of patients with neovascular glaucoma (NVG) in Thailand.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted by reviewing records of Thai patients with NVG who underwent trabeculectomy with MMC between 2013 and 2022. Criterion failure was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) >21 mmHg or less than a 20% reduction below baseline on two consecutive study visits after 3 months, IOP ≤5 mmHg on two consecutive study visits after 3 months, reoperation for glaucoma, and loss of light perception.

Purpose: To compare the efficacy, safety, and factors influencing the outcomes of trabeculectomy (TE), conventional canaloplasty (cCP), and mitomycin C augmented canaloplasty (mCP) in glaucoma patients.
Methods: Intraocular pressure (IOP), the number of IOP-lowering eye drops, and surgery-related complications were evaluated at baseline and through 18 months postoperatively. Correlations between patients' demographic data, ophthalmic and non-ophthalmic conditions, outcomes and complications were evaluated.

Objective: The objective of the study was to study the safety and efficacy of subtenon injection of mitomycin C (MMC) versus sponge application of MMC during trabeculectomy.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-seven patients having primary glaucoma warranting trabeculectomy were enrolled in the study and their forty eyes were alternately allocated into either of the two groups: subtenon injection (ST) of 0.1 mL of 0.

Background: The effects of trabeculectomy on anterior segment parameters have been widely investigated. However, the stabilization time for various glaucoma types after trabeculectomy remains debatable. We investigated the effect of mitomycin C-augmented trabeculectomy on ocular anterior segment parameters in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) during short-term follow-up using the Pentacam HR.
