Purpose: To evaluate a longterm efficiencyt of a deep sclerectomy with T-Flux implant on intraocular pressure Methods: Retrospective noncomparative analysis of glaucomatic patiens from our ambulance who underwent deep sclerectomy combined with T-flux implantation. The main postoperative outcome measures were intraocular pressure (IOP), number of treatments and Nd:YAG goniopunctures. Results: Mean preoperative IOP was 26,7 ((plus or minus) 0,8) mm Hg, mean postoperative IOP was 17,4 ((plus or minus) 0,8) at month 6,16,5 ((plus or minus) 0,7) at month 12,16,9 ((plus or minus) 0,9) at month 24,17,2 ((plus or minus) 1,0) at month 36, 18,6 ((plus or minus) 1,1) at month 48, 17,6 ((plus or minus) 1,1) at month 60 and 18,3 ((plus or minus) 1,8) at month 72. Mean preoperative number of mediactions per patient was reduced from 2,5 ((plus or minus) 0,13) to 0,73 ((plus or minus) 0,13) at month 6,1,02 ((plus or minus) 0,13) at month 12,1,1 ((plus or minus) 0,15) at month 24, 1,0 ((plus or minus) 0,18) at month 36,1,22 ((plus or minus) 0,18) at month 48,1,68 ((plus or minus) 0,2) at month 60,1,8 ((plus or minus) 0,3) at month 72. Four patiens (10%) underwent early goniopuncture and six patiens (15%) late goniopuncture. Conclusion: Deep sclerectomy combined with T-Flux implant appears to be a relatively safe antiglaucomaric surgery with a minimum number of complications, high predidibility of the result and a very good long term effectivity.
