ABSTRACT
PRCIS Sutureless deep sclerectomy (SDS) achieved significant reduction in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG). PURPOSE:
To assess long-term results of SDS in cases with POAG and JOAG. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
A prospective interventional study included 84 eyes of 54 patients underwent SDS with the superficial scleral flap left un-sutured. Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded over 2 years. Success was defined according to the world glaucoma association criteria Criterion A IOP ≤18 mmHg and IOP reduction ≥30% from the preoperative status without medications [complete success (A1)], with and without medications [qualified success (A2)]. Criterion B IOP ≤15 mmHg and IOP reduction ≥40% from the preoperative status without medications [complete success (B1)], with and without medications [qualified success (B2)].RESULTS:
There was statistically significant reduction in IOP compared with the preoperative IOP (mean IOP = 26.21± 10.46 mmHg) starting from 1 st postoperative day (mean IOP = 7.18 ± 1.8 mmHg) till the end of follow-up period at 2 years (mean IOP = 15.85± 4.46) ( P < 0.001). Also, number of medications dropped significantly from 3.27 ± 1.14 to 0.82 ± 0.97 at the end of follow up period. At 2 years complete success (A1) was achieved in 57.1% and qualified success (A2) was achieved in 91.6% of cases. Subgroup analysis into males and females, POAG and JOAG showed no statistically significant difference between subgroups regarding IOP reduction.CONCLUSION:
SDS is an effective and safe modification to deep sclerectomy in cases with POAG and JOAG.
