Investigation of methods of antiglaucoma surgery in order to control the cicatrization of filtration routes of intraocular fluid discharge is carried out at the Vladivostok Medical Institute since 1989. A total of 662 operations are analyzed, which were carried out using an original method with "inverted trapezium"-shaped dissection of the deep tissues of the sclera. A microsurgical knife designed by the authors and patented was used. The results of operations indicate their sufficiently high hypotensive effect and a low incidence of complications. The authors claim that several filtering components are advisable in antiglaucoma surgery. Simplification of the technique of antiglaucoma operation, based on the concept of micro-diastasis and micro-cavities, deserves to be further researched.

Precis: Glaucoma surgery impacts corneal graft survival differently by procedure type, with GDDs being most effective at reducing intraocular pressure. However, graft survival rates are comparable across trabeculectomy, CPC, and GDDs. Trabeculectomy improves visual acuity best but often requires additional interventions.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Ahmed glaucoma valve in pediatric patients with refractory glaucoma.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across multiple major databases, including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews, Science Direct, China's National Knowledge Infrastructure, and the Wanfang database. We retrieved studies published before December 2022 that met the inclusion criteria, including clinical controlled trials (randomized controlled trials) and clinical noncontrolled trials (non-randomized controlled trials) on the use of Ahmed glaucoma valve in pediatric patients with refractory glaucoma.
Prcis: Trabecular cutting minimally invasive glaucoma surgery like bent ab interno needle goniectomy (BANG) when performed in baseline aqueous angiography identified low aqueous humor outflow regions, results in greater success of intraocular pressure reduction.
Purpose: To study the efficacy of Bent Ab Interno Needle Goniectomy (BANG) in high versus low aqueous humor outflow (AHO) regions as determined by Aqueous Angiography(AA) in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).
Methods: A prospective, single-centre, pilot, randomized control trial recruited 30 eyes of 30 patients of POAG and visually significant cataract (45-80 y) and were randomised into two groups ("A": BANG performed in the high-flow regions and "B": BANG performed in the low-flow regions) of 15 each.
Comparison of Outcomes of Deep Sclerectomy, Canaloplasty, and Viscocanaloplasty: A Multi-Centred Study.

Ophthalmology Unit, University Hospital Maggiore della Carità, Novara, Italy.
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.
