| Summary: |
Purpose: The main
purpose of the study was to demonstrate the procedure
and evaluate efficacy of intrascleral placement of
peripheral iris as a method of treatment in advanced
glaucoma cases.
Material and methods: 24 patients with advanced
glaucoma were enrolled in the study. Surgery was
performed. The IOP was measured before the surgery, 5
days, 1 month and 6 months after the surgery. The
effectiveness of treatment and rate of complications
were assessed.
Results: Average IOP after surgery significantly
decreased from 46,16 ± 8,99 mmHg to 14,33 ± 4,59 at the
5th day after the surgery, 17,20 ± 3,88 at 1 month and
17,75 ± 4,09 at 6 months. The efficacy of treatment was
91,66% at 5th day, 87,5% at 1 month and 83,33% at 6
months.
Conclusions: The findings of the study suggest
that this technique is effective in advanced glaucoma
cases and is associated with low complication rate. |
