Conventional trabeculectomy vs trabeculectomy with the Ex-PRESS mini-glaucoma shunt: Differences in postoperative interventions
Clinical Ophthalmology Apr 12, 2018
Tojo N, et al. - Authors aimed to compare the postoperative interventions and outcomes between conventional trabeculectomy and trabeculectomy with the Ex-PRESS mini-glaucoma shunt device (Ex-Press). They included the glaucoma patients who underwent trabeculectomy and followed them for >1 year. In patients whose trabeculectomy treatment includes an Ex-Press, earlier laser suture lysis was required to obtain the outcomes comparable to those of conventional trabeculectomy. A significantly less choroidal detachment was seen in the Ex-Press group due to low intraocular pressure.
