Abstract:We compared corneal endothelial cell (CED) loss between primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudo-exfoliation glaucoma (PEX) after Ex-Press (EXP) surgery.
Patients and Methods:This was a single-facility retrospective study. We included patients who had undergone EXP surgery and were followed up > 3 years. We measured the CED before and after EXP surgery by noncontact specular microscopy. We measured the CED at baseline and 12, 24, and 36 months post-surgery and compared the means of the CED values and CED… Show more
