[HTML][HTML] One-Year Results of a Multicenter Study: Intraocular Pressure–Lowering Effect of Combined Phacoemulsification, Goniosynechialysis, and Goniotomy for …
The Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022•journals.lww.com
Purpose: To evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect of the combination of
phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation (PEI), goniosynechialysis (GSL), and
goniotomy (GT) in eyes of advanced primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) with cataract.
Design: Multicenter observational study. Methods: We enrolled 83 eyes of 83 patients with
advanced PACG who received combined PEI+ GSL+ GT at 8 ophthalmic institutes. Each
patient was assessed before treatment and at 1, 7 days, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postsurgery …

Abstract
Purpose:
To evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect of the combination of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation (PEI), goniosynechialysis (GSL), and goniotomy (GT) in eyes of advanced primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) with cataract.
Design:
Multicenter observational study.
Methods:
We enrolled 83 eyes of 83 patients with advanced PACG who received combined PEI+ GSL+ GT at 8 ophthalmic institutes. Each patient was assessed before treatment and at 1, 7 days, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postsurgery. The criteria for complete success were IOP within 6 to 18 mm Hg and at least 20% of reduction in IOP from baseline without ocular hypotensive medications or reoperation. The definition of qualified success was similar to that of complete success, except for the need for ocular hypotensive medications. The potential prognostic factors for surgical success were investigated using a multivariate logistic model.
