Incidence and risk factors for early transient intraocular pressure elevation after penetrating canaloplasty in patients with glaucoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors for early transient intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation after penetrating canaloplasty (PCP) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and secondary glaucoma (SG).

Methods

This retrospective study included 198 eyes of 198 patients with glaucoma. Participants were classified as normal IOP, early transient high IOP (E-HIOP [Tst]), early persistent IOP elevation, late transient high IOP, and late persistent IOP elevation, based on the period and persistence of postoperative IOP elevation.

Results

E-HIOP (Tst) developed in 34.8%, 33.3%, and 40.9% of eyes with POAG, PACG, and SG, respectively. In comparison with normal IOP group, we observed the followin
