Abstract

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of improved surgery combined with laser beam for neovascular glaucoma combined with vitreous hemorrhage. Methods 21 cases (22 eyes) with neovascular glaucoma combined with vitreous hemorrhage were operated on with improved vitreoretinal surgery, improved trabeculectomy combined with laser, or improved ve-treoreninal surgery combined with laser according to the stage of disease, respectively. Results The follow-up ranged from 3 to 36 months after surgery. 10 eyes were remarkably effective (45.5%), 8 eyes were effective ,4 eyes were no effective. Mean intraocu-lar pressure were 27.28±6.31 mm Hg before surgery and significantly different (P0.05) as compared with that after surgery (27.28± 6.31 mm Hg). 12 eyes (54.5%) with vitreous hemorrhage healed completely. Eyesight of 7 eyes (31.8%) improved. 4 eyes's intraocular pressure was out of control and were taken cyclocryotherapy. Conclusion Improved surgery combined with laser can prevent disease development, remain a certain vision, and it is a safe method for neovascular glaucoma combined with vitreous hemorrhage.
