Abstract

Over the last half century, open-angle glaucoma
management has revolved mainly around topical
medical treatment with or without laser
trabeculoplasty, with gold standard trabeculectomy
kept back for patients with advanced and progressing

associated with trabeculectomy and glaucoma valves,

algorithm. Development of new topical medications
has actually reduced the rate of trabeculectomy
remarkably.
