Outcome of GATT Combined With Goniosynechiolysis in Glaucoma Patients With Secondary Synechial Angle Closure.

Outcome of Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy Combined With Goniosynechiolysis in Glaucoma Patients With Secondary Synechial Angle Closure: A Prospective Case Series

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

To evaluate the intraocular pressure reduction effect of combined gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) with goniosynechialysis in eyes with secondary synechial angle closure glaucoma.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Patients with secondary synechial angle closure glaucoma - Involving more than 180 degrees of the iridocorneal angle - Requiring surgery for uncontrolled IOP despite maximum tolerated therapy. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Eyes with PACG. - Eyes with neovascular glaucoma. (Some apparently stable NVG cases would have remnants of neo-vessels in the angle that are hidden behind the synechiae). - Eyes with retinal pathology. - Eyes requiring combined phacoemulsification and GATT. - Eyes with corneal pathology that can preclude surgery and imaging. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
