Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery on Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery on Chinese Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma

To evaluate the clinical efficacy (intraocular pressure reduction , success rate, the number of antiglaucoma medication) and safety of ab interno trabeculectomy (AIT) with Trabectome in Chinese PACG .

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A randomized, single blind, positive parallel control study method was used.This prospective case series will recruit 246 Chinese POAG, 123 cases in the experimental group will receive AIT treatment and 123 cases in the control group will receive trabeculectomy(Trab) surgery.Measurements of intraocular pressure(IOP) , visual acuity, refraction, slit lamp examination of the anterior segment and fundus, optical coherence tomography(OCT) to detect retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, macular thickness, visual field, gonioscopy and ultrasonic biological microscopy (UBM) will be recorded.They will be followed up for 12 months. The main outcome is success rate of IOP reduction and the other outcome are the number of antiglaucoma medication and complications .

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma (PACG) with visible trabecular meshwork from 90︒ to 180︒ on gonioscopy and IOP couldn't be controlled ≤21mmHg with pilocarpine eye drop only.
  • willing to accept the antiglaucoma surgery

  • previous antiglaucoma filtering surgery or laser surgery(LPI, SLT) and previous cataract surgery were not ruled out
  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • visual acuity lower than HM or central tubular visual field
  • corneal edema or large pterygium affecting the observation of anterior angle
  • the demarcation of the scleral process and trabecular meshwork is not clear on gonioscopy
  • new vessels on the iris surface or in the anterior angle chamber
  • the eye received surgery is the only eye with visual function, that is the contralateral eye is blind

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: AIT group
PACG in AIT group will receive ab interno trabeculectomy with Trabectome and before AIT, Laser Peripheral Iridectomy (LPI) will be performed first.
123 PACG will be recruited to receive ab interno trabeculectomy with Trabectome and before this surgery, laser peripheral iridectomy will be performed firstly
Active Comparator: Trab group
PACG in AIT group will receive trabeculectomy.
123 PACG will be recruited to receive trabeculectomy to reduce IOP
