| Summary: |
Purpose: To provide
data on the long-term results of trabeculectomy
performed in open angle and in chronic angle – closure
glaucoma.
Material and methods: Fifty nine eyes of 51
patients, underwent trabeculectomy from 1992 to 1994 in
the Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of
Lodz. The follow up was minimum 10 years. Such pre – and
postoperative measurements, as: visual acuity,
intraocular pressure (IOP), visual field and the use of
hypotensive medications, were evaluated.
Results: Successful IOP control was obtained in
91%. After 10-years follow – up the average IOP was 15
mmHg. The decrease in visual acuity was found in 25% of
eyes, caused mainly by cataract. In 71% of eyes (10
years after surgery) additional topical medication was
required.
Conclusions: Trabeculectomy is effective and very
often performed surgery in glaucoma. |
