  2. Anterior chamber paracentesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_chamber_paracentesis

    In this procedure aqueous humor from the anterior chamber of eyeball is drained out by using a tuberculin syringe, with or without a plunger attached to a hypodermic needle or a paracentesis incision. [1] Eye is anesthetized using proparacaine or tetracaine eye drops prior to ACP. [5] Paracentesis is performed through the clear cornea adjacent ...

  3. Trabeculectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabeculectomy

    Trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure used in the treatment of glaucoma to relieve intraocular pressure by removing part of the eye's trabecular meshwork and adjacent structures. It is the most common glaucoma surgery performed and allows drainage of aqueous humor from within the eye to underneath the conjunctiva where it is absorbed.

  4. Ocular hypertension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_hypertension

    Treatment, by lowering the intraocular pressure, may help decrease the risk of vision loss and damage to the eye from glaucoma. Treatment options include pressure-lowering 'antiglaucomatous' eye drops, surgery, and/or laser eye surgery. [4] Medications that lower intraocular pressure can work by decreasing aqueous humor production and/or ...

  5. Glaucoma surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaucoma_surgery

    Glaucoma is a group of diseases affecting the optic nerve that results in vision loss and is frequently characterized by raised intraocular pressure (IOP). There are many glaucoma surgeries, and variations or combinations of those surgeries, that facilitate the escape of excess aqueous humor from the eye to lower intraocular pressure, and a few that lower IOP by decreasing the production of ...

  6. Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimally_invasive...

    Excimer laser trabeculostomy is a procedure which creates holes in the trabecular meshwork to reduce intraocular pressure by using a excimer laser. First developed in 1987, a 2020 review of 8 studies found the procedure reduced intraocular pressure by 20-40% and had generally positive outcomes. [47]

  7. Trabectome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabectome

    The Trabectome decreases the intra-ocular pressure typically to a mid-teen range and reduces the patient's requirement to take glaucoma eye drops and glaucoma medications (see references). The theoretically lowest pressure that can be achieved is equal to 8 mmHg in the episcleral veins.
