Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate the rate of reduction of intraocular pressure and the occurrence of long-term complications following trabeculectdmy in patients with narrow- and open-angle GLAUCOMA. The descriptive strategy of this study was performed on 142 eyes, of 119 patients with narrow- and open-angle GLAUCOMA having TRABECULECTOMY and followed up for at least one year. The limbal base TRABECULECTOMY was performed by removing a 33 sclera flap and 2x3 conjunctiva flap, they were stitched by nylon thread 10 and criterion for performing surgery was intraocular pressure greater than 20 mmHg with respect to visual field. Out of 142 eyes, 126 (88.7%) showed a reduction in intraocular pressure. Out of 125 eyes with an early open-angle GLAUCOMA, 109 (87.2%) and out of 17 eyes with an early narrow-angle GLAUCOMA, 16 (91.2%) showed a reduction in intraocular pressure. From a total of 45 patients with an age less than 60 years, 33 cases (73%) and from a total of 74 patients with an age greater than 60 years, 70 cases (94.5%) had a reduction in LOP. The complications including progression of optic nerve damage, cataract occurrence, endophthalmitis, vitreous loss, central visual loss, Dellen and intractable GLAUCOMA were evaluated. Choroid detachment and flat anterior chamber was observed in 12 eyes (8.5%) and none of them did not show an increase in lOP during follow-up, that was greater than previous reports (4.5%). Considering benefits of TRABECULECTOMY and its negligible complications in treatment of narrow- and open-angle GLAUCOMA, this surgical procedure can be suggested as the first option in treatment strategies in clinics. Furthermore, since better results are achieved in persons with an age less than 60 years, it is recommended to use antimetabolites in such cases
