Description
Purpose In open-angle glaucoma, trabeculectomy effectively reduces intraocular pressure when medical or laser therapies fail; yet, it typically introduces astigmatism. We conducted a retrospective observational study comparing surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) across three trabeculectomy methods (limbal-based and fornix-based with or without partial-thickness limbal corneal incision) by three surgeons at the University of Iowa Health Care.
