Corneal Endothelial Damage After Trabeculectomy With Mitomycin C in Two Patients With Glaucoma With Cornea Guttata

Abstract

Severe endothelial damage after trabeculectomy with MMC may occur in patients with glaucoma and associated cornea guttata. The use of tight sutures on the scleral flap or a modified operative method, nonpenetrating trabeculectomy, may be effective in preventing a shallow to flat anterior chamber postoperatively.
