AIM: To observe and analyze the clinical effect of non-penetrating trabecular surgery combined with mitomycin C and deep sclera flap invagination in the treatment of open-angle glaucoma. METHODS: Fourteen cases (18 eyes) with open-angle glaucoma were performed non-penetrating trabecular surgery combined with mitomycin C and deep sclera flap invagination. The vision acuity, visual field, intraocular pressure (IOP), anterior chamber (angle of anterior chamber) before and after operation, and filtering bleb after operation were observed. All patients were followed up for 3-18 months. RESULTS: The mean IOP before operation was (27.93 ± 7.62) mmHg (1mmHg = 0.133kpa), and (14.62 ± 3.53) mmHg after operation, there was statistically significant difference between them (t = 11.82, P < 0.01). Vision acuity and visual field had no significant change after operation. All 16 eyes formed filtering bleb. Of the total, type filtering bleb was in 6 eyes, type in 11 eyes and type in 1 eye. CONCLUSION: Non-penetrating trabecular surgery combined with mitomycin C and deep sclera flap invagination is a safe, effective, low cost and repeatable new treatment for open-angle glaucoma.
