Trabeculectomy With Mitomycin C Combined With Direct Cauterization of Peripheral Iris in the Management of Neovascular Glaucoma

Abstract

Trabeculectomy with MMC combined with direct cauterization of peripheral iris decreases the incidence of both intraoperative bleeding, and early postoperative hyphema, and provides reduction of IOP and the number of antiglaucomatous medications in cases with NVG in a 6-month follow-up period.
