Abstract

AIM: To observe the clinical effect of bio-amnion implantation used in combined trabeculectomy for refractory glaucoma METHODS: Totally 86 eyes of 80 glaucoma patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. In experimental group, 43 eyes underwent trabeculectomy combined with bio-amnion implantation. In control group, 43 eyes only underwent trabeculectomy combined. The intraocular pressure(IOP), filtrative bleb and complications were observed. RESULTS: Following-up for 12 months, IOP: there was significant difference between the average IOP(15.5±1.1mmHg)in experimental group and the average IOP(19.7±2.5mmHg)in control group(P
