What are the surgical methods of glaucoma?

The surgical method of glaucoma is as follows: 1. Congenital glaucoma: trabeculotomy, also known as goniotomy, is commonly used, with the range of 120-360, and the operation depends on the specific situation; 2. Open angle glaucoma: drug treatment is the first choice. If the intraocular pressure is not well controlled and the visual function is impaired, it is recommended to do filtration surgery or catheterization surgery; 3, angle-closure glaucoma: including acute angle-closure glaucoma, chronic angle-closure glaucoma, in the case of controlling intraocular pressure, filtering surgery, also known as trabeculectomy. Glaucoma surgery, non-vision surgery, the purpose of surgery is to reduce intraocular pressure. Postoperative follow-up should be carried out regularly and corresponding treatment should be carried out.
