Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

this study evaluated new technique for suturing the Ahmed valve device used to treat resistant types of glaucoma

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This technique of fixating Ahmed glaucoma valve using flanged prolene suture is an safe, fast, and reproducible technique combines the benefits of fixing the plate with excellent stability with no complications of free plate techniques at the same time, decreasing both the risks of old valve plate fixation techniques and the concerns of the relative technical difficulty

Novel Technique for Fixating the Plate of Ahmed Valve to the Sclera Using a Single Flanged Prolene Suture

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

This novel technique of fixating the plate of Ahmed glaucoma valve to the sclera using a single flanged prolene suture is an efficient, safe, fast, and reproducible technique that combines the benefits of both fixing the plate providing excellent stability without the complications of free plate techniques and at the same time, minimizing both the risks of conventional old valve plate fixation techniques and the concerns of the relative technical difficulty of suturing due to the difficult access to the posterior globe
