Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Main outcome measures
Time Frame: 1 month
A successful outcome was defined as Intraocular Pressure (IOP) reduction in ≥20%, with the IOP range 5-21mm/Hg. Successful outcomes were further categorized into two groups: Complete success - IOP reduction in ≥20%, with unmedicated the IOP range 5-21mm/Hg and Qualified success where reduction and ranges of IOP is the same but with antiglaucoma medications. Failure was defined as IOP reduction in <20% or IOP >21mm/Hg at last follow up. Permanent hypotony was defined as IOP < 5mm/Hg during more than 4 weeks.
