Canaloplasty is a recently introduced non-penetrating surgical technique for glaucoma, which seeks to improve the natural outflow of aqueous humor through Schlemm's canal and the collector channels. Just as in all forms of glaucoma surgery there are a certain number of failures of the procedure and further surgery is often needed to reduce the intraocular pressure in these cases. This article describes some of the revision procedures after canaloplasty.
