ABSTRACT
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of viscocanalostomy technique in managing uncontrolled glaucoma secondary to uveitis. The study included ten eyes in ten patients with uncontrolled glaucoma secondary to uveitis in spite of maximum tolerated medical therapy. All of them were assigned to viscocanalostomy according to Stegmann's technique. A complete ophthalmologic examination was performed the day before surgery and postoperatively. The mean follow up period was 12 months. After the mean follow up of 12 months, viscocanalostomy significantly reduced IOP. The number of antiglaucoma medications had reduced postoperatively. Complications were few including hyphema and transient rise of IOP. Viscocanalostomy is a useful surgical modality for treatment of glaucoma secondary to uveitis
