Primary Deep Sclerectomy in Open-Angle Glaucoma: Long-Term Outcomes and Risk Factors for Failure.

Deep sclerectomy is an effective, long-lasting primary surgical procedure for OAG. Intraoperative MMC enhances survival, whereas higher preoperative IOP and postoperative maneuvers are predictors of increased failure.

Hypotony-associated Complications After Deep Sclerectomy: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Long-term Outcomes.

The median (interquartile range) age and follow-up were 76 (67 to 82) years and 45.4 (20.9 to 79.8) months, respectively.

Hypotony Failure Criteria in Glaucoma Surgical Studies and Their Influence on Surgery Success.

Hypotony failure criteria are highly heterogenous in the glaucoma literature, with few studies focusing on clinical manifestations.

A Comparison of Deep Sclerectomy Trainer Versus Trainee Outcomes.

IOP outcomes of DS and phaco-DS were not adversely affected if fellows performed surgery, whether under supervision or independently.

Evaluating High Intraocular Pressure Criteria for Failure in Glaucoma Surgery: Impact on Estimated Success and Visual Field Rates.

The criteria for defining high IOP failure in glaucoma surgery are highly heterogeneous in the current literature.

Comparison of Outcomes of Deep Sclerectomy, Canaloplasty, and Viscocanaloplasty: A Multicenter Study.

All 3 NPGS provide sustained IOP reduction, but DS and CP provide better success rates and IOP control.

Long-term outcomes of needle revision of failing deep sclerectomy blebs.

Needle revision with subconjunctival MMC may successfully lower the intraocular pressure in eyes with a failing DS bleb in the long term.

Deep sclerectomy with bevacizumab and mitomycin C: a comparative study.

Subconjunctival Bevacizumab with primary DS appears to be as efficacious as MMC augmentation with no additional side effects.
