Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 249(4):565-73 (2011) PMID 20862489

In order to distinguish a more pronounced and sustained hypotensive effect of non-penetrating glaucoma surgery, a modified surgical procedure is proposed, which provides enlargement of the filtration membrane area with maximal maintenance of natural aqueous outflow pathways.

    Nonpenetrating glaucoma surgeries have been developed in recent years in order to improve the safety of conventional filtering procedures. The goal of nonpenetrating filtering procedures is to reduce intraocular pressure by enhancing the natural aqueous outflow channels, while reducing outflow resis...
