Surgical Results in the Management of Advanced Primary Congenital Glaucoma in a Rural Pediatric Population
Ophthalmology(2011)
Abstract
Our surgical outcomes in children with advanced PCG demonstrated moderate overall improvement in IOP and modest improvement of VA. Deep deprivation amblyopia, severe disease manifestation at presentation, opaque corneas, and frequent lens dislocation limited the possible success. These data further signify the need for effective, timely screening of children and prompt recognition by health care workers to reduce the rate of avoidable blindness in developing countries.
