Abstract:Objective To study the clinical effect of small incision cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation combined with
trabeculectomy for glaucoma with cataract. Methods 45 patients(50 eyes)with glaucoma and cataract were analyzed retrospectively. The vision,
intraocular pressure, filtration bleb morphology and complications were analyzed before and after surgery. Results Vision: 38 eyes(76%)in 50 eyes
were improved compared with preoperative and 12 eyes(24%)had unchanged; best corrected visual acuity were compared between before and after
surgery, the postoperative vision was improved significantly; Intraocular pressure: The mean intraocular pressure was(29.16±2.63)mmHg before use
(2.50±0.41)kinds of anti-glaucoma drugs before surgery, (1.32±3.45)mmHg without drug at 1 week after surgery, and(32.32±3.45)mmHg followup
12 months. 38 eyes were controlled better, 8 eyes were controlled below 20 mmHg with one kind of anti-glaucoma drug and 4 eyes were controlled to
20 ~ 25 mmHg with 2 kinds of hypotensive drugs; Filtration bleb: 41 eyes(82%)with type I and type II, 9 eyes(18%)with type III and type IV
functional filtering blebs after follow-up 12 months; Complications: mainly corneal edema and anterior uveitis. Conclusion The small incision cataract
extraction and intraocular lens implantation combined with trabeculectomy for glaucoma with cataract can effectively reduce the pressure of the eye and
improve the vision.
