Glaucoma

Visit-handling methods significantly affect reported glaucoma surgery success rates

Different strategies for handling multiple intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements within follow-up time windows can substantially alter reported success rates after glaucoma surgery, according to a study. Researchers applied standard high-IOP failure criteria to 934 trabeculectomy-treated eyes and 1760 deep sclerectomy-treated eyes, with approximately 41–45 months of follow-up.
