Glaucoma stands as a prominent contributor to irreversible vision impairment on a global scale. For decades, the Baerveldt Glaucoma Implant (BGI) has been used to treat refractory glaucoma. Yet, the cost-effective Aurolab Aqueous Drainage Implant (AADI) has gained clinical attention as a viable alternative for managing glaucoma.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how often patients with glaucoma following cataract surgery (GFCS) needed additional surgeries and their outcomes after treatment.
- A review of medical records revealed that over half of the patients required glaucoma surgery, with those who had unilateral cataracts experiencing worse visual acuity compared to those with bilateral cataracts.
- The findings indicated varying success rates for different surgical techniques, with Baerveldt implants performing the best in terms of long-term survival rates.
Treatment Outcomes Comparing the Paul and Baerveldt Glaucoma Implants After One Year of Follow-Up.

Department of Ophthalmology, University Hospitals of Leuven.
Prcis: In reducing intraocular pressure (IOP), Paul (PGI) and Baerveldt (BGI) glaucoma implants are safe and effective in patients with glaucoma.
Objective: To compare efficacy and safety profiles of the PGI and BGI in the treatment of medically uncontrolled glaucoma at 1 year of follow-up.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of patients implanted with a PGI or BGI with a minimum of 12 months follow-up.

Department of Ophthalmology, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, Florida. Electronic address:
Purpose: To compare surgical outcomes of phacoemulsification combined with Baerveldt implantation (phaco-tube) or trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C (MMC) (phaco-trab) in patients without prior incisional ocular surgery.
Design: Single-center, retrospective, comparative case series.
Participants: A total of 90 patients underwent surgical treatment, including 45 patients in the phaco-tube group and 45 patients in the phaco-trab group.
