Corneal astigmatism after glaucoma surgery

ABSTRACT

Different techniques of subscleral trabeculectomies were done, using different shapes of scleral flaps, in comparison with peripheral iridectomy, and iridenecliesis to study the incidence of postoperative astigmatism, in glaucoma surgery. The incidence of corneal astigmatism was lower in peripheral iridectomy and subscleral trabecuIectomies, specially triangular flaps, in comparison with iridencleisis
