| Summary: |
Purpose: To
evaluate the outcomes of Ahmed glaucoma valve
implantation for therapy of glaucoma after penetrating
keratoplasty.
Material and methods: 17 Ahmed glaucoma valve
implants were placed in 17 eyes with glaucoma after
penetrating keratoplasty. The follow up was 1 year. V.A,
IOP and index medication were observed before and 1 year
after surgery.
Results: The mean preoperative IOP was 29,1 mmHg
(±6,5) with average medication 2,65 ± 0,5, 1 year after
surgery the maen IOP decreased to 18,4 mmHg ± 4,7 with
0,7 ± 0,8 medication. The tube implant successfully
controlled glaucoma in 13 eyes (73,5%) at 1 year. The
corneal grafts remain clear in 11 eyes (64,7%).
Conclusions: Implantation of Ahmed glaucoma valve
successfully controlled IOP in difficult cases of
glaucoma after penetrating keratoplasty. |
