| Popis: | Pur po se: To evaluate the effectiveness of laser suture lysis in patients with high intraocular pressure (IOP) after trabeculectomy. Ma te ri al and Met hod: We evaluated retrospectively 22 eyes of 22 patients who had undergone trabeculectomy followed by laser suture lysis due to high IOP between July 2009 and February 2011. The process was performed in patients who had high IOP with bleb formation after ocular massage in early postoperative period. Re sults: The mean age was 62.7±10.8 (38-77) years and the male/female ratio was 11/11 in the study group. The mean interval time between trabeculectomy and performance of suture lysis was 18.5 ±31.1 days (2-150 days). The mean IOPs before and immediately after laser suture lysis were 25 ±8.6 mmHg (14-45 mmHg) and 14±5.8 mmHg (6-27 mmHg), respectively (p |
