Abstract

The safety and success rate of trabeculectomy using fornix-based conjunctival flaps were investigated. Patients with chronic angle-closure glaucoma(22 eyes), primary open-angle glaucoma(10 eyes), secondary glaucoma(4 eyes) and ocular hypertension(1 eye) had a trabeculectomy with a fornix-based conjunctival flap.
