Comparative StudyComparison of posture-induced intraocular pressure changes in medically treated and surgically treated eyes with open-angle glaucoma.
To compare the posture-induced IOP changes in medically treated eyes with those in surgically treated eyes having open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and low IOP. ⋯ The lower posture-induced IOP change in the successfully trabeculectomized eyes indicates that trabeculectomy will not only lead to a decrease in the IOP but also lower the posture-induced IOP change.
