Brief Summary

When antihypertensive drugs or laser therapy can not reach the target intraocular pressure, trabeculectomy (TRAB) is still the standard surgical method for glaucoma. The scarring of the operative area is a common reason for the failure of trabeculectomy. After trabeculectomy, maintaining the shape and function of the filtering bleb is an important aspect to maintain the surgical effect. The increase in the number of blood vessels on the filtering bleb and the morphological curvature are often the manifestations of decompensation of the filtering bleb. Angiogenesis in the filtering bleb region plays an important role in surgical incision healing and is related to the accompanying scar formation. Therefore, the evaluation of vascular distribution of filtering blebs is an important index and early parameter to evaluate the success or failure of surgery. With the improvement of detection methods, it is possible to use AS-OCTA to evaluate the function and prognosis of filtering bleb after trabeculectomy. Antimitotic drugs such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or mitomycin C (MMC) have always been the most commonly used clinical drugs, but the side effects caused by their use are not satisfactory. It is still the research direction of glaucoma to find new targets for regulating wound healing and more safe and effective drugs.

Study Population

Patients preparing for trabeculectomy for glaucoma

You may qualify if:

  • Those who are over 18 years old and can complete all the tests and examinations.
  • Patients who want to undergo trabeculectomy in accordance with the diagnosis of glaucoma.
  • Intraocular pressure can not be controlled by intraocular pressure lowering drugs and laser therapy (intraocular pressure can not be controlled ≤ 21mmHg).

You may not qualify if:

  • Those with a history of ocular trauma, trabeculectomy within 6 months, eye surgery or eye laser within 3 years.
  • The conjunctival state of the proposed surgical area can not support high-quality imaging (signal intensity \< 6).
  • Postoperative conjunctival hemorrhage or serious complications, including hyphema, malignant glaucoma, endophthalmitis and so on.
  • The condition of the whole body does not support surgery, such as heart disease, mental illness, malignant tumor, etc.
  • After trabeculectomy, glaucoma drug treatment or reoperation was performed.
  • Pregnant, lactating and pregnant women. Those who refuse to sign the informed consent form or voluntarily withdraw from the study due to discomfort or other reasons.
