Five-Year Clinical Outcomes of Inferior Quadrant Trabectome Surgery for Open Angle Glaucoma.

Trabectome surgery is a safe and relatively effective procedure for lowering IOP, but most patients still need IOP-lowering agents, and a considerable proportion may need additional glaucoma surgery within a relatively short time.

Sonographic bleb visualisation after PAUL glaucoma implant surgery.

Sonography is a suitable modality to evaluate bleb characteristics after PGI implantation.

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL glaucoma implant in primary open-angle and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma eyes after failed glaucoma surgeries.

In conclusion, the PGI demonstrated significant IOP reduction and decreased need for medication in both POAG and PEXG patients, with no major differences between the two groups at 12 months.

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL® Glaucoma implant for refractory glaucoma: three-year results.

PGI surgery effectively reduces IOP and medication burden in refractory glaucoma, with sustained efficacy over three years. The intraluminal Prolene stent enables further non-invasive IOP reduction postoperatively.

Comparing the use of Tutopatch® pericardium with Tutoplast® fascia lata in the context of PAUL® glaucoma implant surgery: an anterior segment OCT study.

This study shows that AS-OCT is a useful method for comparing different patch materials after PGI surgery.

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL Glaucoma implant for neovascular glaucoma.

The PGI demonstrates significant IOP reduction in NVG, with sustained success at higher IOP thresholds. However, maintaining very low IOP levels remains challenging.

Clinical Outcomes of Intraluminal Stent Removal After PAUL Glaucoma Implant Surgery.

Removal of the prolene stent following PGI surgery effectively lowers IOP in the short term, with a moderate increase in IOP and need for pressure-lowering therapy over time.
