    Abstract This study evaluated the long-term surgical outcomes of Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI) surgery in patients with refractory glaucoma (204 eyes/204 patients). Surgical failure was defined by: < 20% reduction in preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), or criterion A (IOP > 21 mmHg), criterion B (IOP > 17 mmHg), or criterion C (IOP > 14 mmHg). Reoperation, loss of light perception vision, or hypotony also denoted failure. The probability of success at 5 years postoperatively using criteria A, B, and C was 72.4%, 49.7%, and 24.4%, respectively. The mean IOP decreased significantly from 32.7 ± 9.7 mmHg preoperatively to 13.1 ± 3.9 mmHg at 5 years; the mean number of glaucoma medications also decreased from 3.7 ± 1.2 to 1.8 ± 1.9 (both P < 0.01). The number of previous intraocular surgeries was significantly associated with failure in the multivariable analysis for criterion B (hazard ratio 1.30; P < 0.01) and criterion C (hazard ratio 1.19; P = 0.031). Early and late postoperative complications occurred in 82 (40.2%) and 28 (13.7%) eyes, respectively. Postoperative interventions were performed in 44 eyes (21.6%). BGI surgery resulted in significant long-term decreases in IOP and the number of glaucoma medications. BGI surgery is effective for refractory glaucoma. However, postoperative interventions due to complications are required in numerous cases.

    Abstract We demonstrated whether the difference of trabecular meshwork remodeling occur depending on the incisional cross-sectional area by comparing Kahook dual-blade goniotomy (KDB) and ab interno trabeculotomy with a microhook. Phakic eyes with primary open-angle or exfoliative glaucoma were randomised into a KDB or a microhook group. The primary outcome was an incisional cross-sectional area quantified by anterior segment optical coherence tomography. In subgroup analysis, the number of patients with the unidentifiable incisional area was compared between the groups. Secondary outcomes were the rate of intraocular pressure changes, the laser flare metre values, corneal endothelial cell densities, the number of glaucoma medications, the usage rate per glaucoma medication type and postoperative complications between the two groups. A total of 29 eyes in 29 patients in the KDB and microhook group were included respectively, with an overall mean age of 72.6 ± 8.1 years. The incisional cross-sectional area of the KDB group was significantly larger at 1 week and at 1, 6 and 12 months (p < 0.01) postoperatively. The number of patients with the nonidentified incisional area was higher at 1, 6 and 12 months postoperatively (p ≤ 0.03) in the microhook group. The flare values in the KDB group were higher than those in the microhook group at 12 months postoperatively (p = 0.02). No significant differences were observed in other secondary outcomes. Incisional cross-sectional area remains larger in eyes treated with KDB goniotomy than in those treated with ab interno trabeculotomy with the microhook, whereas KDB goniotomy did not have an advantage in controlling intraocular pressure postoperatively.Trial registration: UMIN000041290 (UMIN, University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry of Japan; date of access and registration, 03/08/2020).

    Abstract Purpose: This study evaluated the surgical practice patterns of glaucoma management followed by glaucoma specialists in Japan.
    Methods: A survey was administered to 50 glaucoma specialists who were councilors in the Japan Glaucoma Society about surgical preferences and postoperative glaucoma care.
    Results: All 50 glaucoma specialists participated in the survey. Results show that, in 2019, compared to conventional trabeculotomy (4.6%), the frequency of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), combined with phacoemulsification, remarkably increased (79.0%) for non-operated eyes with mild open-angle glaucoma associated with cataract. Tube-shunt surgery was performed more often for open-angle glaucoma with previously twice failed trabeculectomy (65.8%) and neovascular glaucoma with previously once failed trabeculectomy (63.4%). In addition, during one year post-operatively, MIGS required less frequent follow-up visits compared to filtering surgery.
    Conclusion: Although glaucoma specialists in the Japan Glaucoma Society usually prefer trabeculectomy, in the past decade they have selected tube-shunt surgery more often to treat refractory glaucoma. MIGS is increasing remarkably as the choice primary glaucoma surgery.

    Abstract We retrospectively evaluated the long-term surgical outcomes of phacoemulsification combined with a Kahook dual blade (KDB) procedure in Japanese patients with open-angle glaucoma. The primary outcome was surgical success or failure. Surgical failure was indicated by a <20% reduction in preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) or IOP > 18 mmHg (criterion A), IOP > 14 mmHg (criterion B), or requirement for reoperation. Glaucoma medications after surgery and postoperative complications were recorded. Surgical outcomes were compared between primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and exfoliation glaucoma (ExG) groups. The probability of success at 36 months postoperation was 52.5% using criterion A and 36.9% using criterion B. Mean IOP decreased significantly from 19.5 ± 6.9 mmHg preoperatively to 11.9 ± 2.7 mmHg at 36 months, and the mean number of glaucoma medications from 2.4 ± 1.4 to 1.6 ± 1.4 (both p < 0.01). IOP spikes were significantly more common in the ExG group (23.7% vs. 9.1%; p = 0.045), as was the need for additional glaucoma surgery (10.5% vs. 1.8%; p = 0.038). A KDB procedure combined with cataract surgery resulted in significant long-term decreases in IOP and the number of glaucoma medications. The complication rate was higher in eyes with ExG. Therefore, these eyes require more careful management after a KDB procedure.

    Abstract Background: We aimed to compare the outcomes of trabeculectomy combined with phacoemulsification and those of trabeculectomy followed by phacoemulsification.
    Methods: A total of 141 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, exfoliation glaucoma, and glaucoma secondary to uveitis glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy followed by (n = 48) or combined with (n = 93) phacoemulsification were included. We analyzed data collected from the Collaborative Bleb-Related Infection Incidence and Treatment Study, a prospective cohort study conducted in 34 clinical centers that included 1249 eyes. The main outcome was the cumulative probability of success based on intraocular pressure (IOP) within 5 years. Surgical failure was defined as a case in which additional glaucoma surgery is required or one of the following criteria are met: preoperative IOP > 21 (A), > 18 (B), or > 15 mmHg (C). The secondary outcomes were cumulative probability of success, risk factors of surgical failure, and Δ visual acuity. However, the data on phacoemulsification during the 5-year follow-up were censored.
    Results: No significant difference was found in the cumulative probability of success as the main outcome. When the data on phacoemulsification during the 5-year follow-up were censored, the probabilities of success of trabeculectomy followed by phacoemulsification were significantly higher for criteria A (p = 0.02), B (p <  0.01), and C (p <  0.01). Lower preoperative IOP, younger age, and trabeculectomy combined with phacoemulsification were associated with poorer outcome. Trabeculectomy followed by phacoemulsification had significantly worse Δ logMAR visual acuity at 6 and 12 months (p <  0.01).
    Conclusion: The cumulative probability of success after trabeculectomy combined with or followed by phacoemulsification remained unchanged. Combining phacoemulsification with trabeculectomy adversely affected the cumulative probability of success after trabeculectomy. The visual acuity improvements observed in the early postoperative period after combining phacoemulsification with trabeculectomy disappeared within 5 years.

    Abstract Purpose: To compare the ascorbic acid concentration and total antioxidant capacity in the aqueous humor of pigmented Rex rabbits after sham operation (control), iridectomy, and trabeculectomy.
    Methods: Pigmented Rex rabbits were divided into control, iridectomy, and trabeculectomy groups and followed up for 12 months after surgery. Ascorbic acid concentration and total antioxidant capacity in the aqueous humor, intraocular pressure, and the occurrence of cataracts were examined in each group.
    Results: The ascorbic acid concentration and total antioxidant capacity after iridectomy and trabeculectomy were significantly lower at one week and at one, six, and 12 months after operation than those in the control group (P ≤ 0.03). Ascorbic acid concentration was positively and significantly correlated with total antioxidant capacity in the aqueous humor (P < 0.01). Compared to the control and the iridectomy groups, intraocular pressure in the trabeculectomy group was significantly lower at one week and at one and six months after surgery (one week: P < 0.01 and P < 0.01, respectively; one month: P < 0.01 and P = 0.03, respectively; six months: P = 0.03). Histological findings in the iridectomy and trabeculectomy groups included the appearance of vacuoles in the lens at six and 12 months after surgery.
    Conclusions: Iridectomy causes a sustained decrease in ascorbic acid concentration, followed by a long-term decrease in the total antioxidant capacity within the aqueous humor.
    Translational relevance: The animal model possibly predicts the vulnerability focusing on the antioxidant level in the anterior chamber environment after trabeculectomy and iridectomy per se in clinical settings.
