Purpose. To assess the safety and efficacy of Trabectome procedure in patients with preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) of 30 mmHg or higher. Methods. All patients who had underwent Trabectome stand-alone or Trabectome combined with phacoemulsification were included. Survival analysis was performed by using Kaplan-Meier, and success was defined as IOP ≤ 21 mmHg, 20% or more IOP reduction from baseline for any two consecutive visits after 3 months, and no secondary glaucoma surgery. Results. A total of 49 cases were included with an average age of 66 (range: 13–91). 28 cases had Trabectome stand-alone and 21 cases had Trabectome combined with phacoemulsification. Mean IOP was reduced from a baseline of 35.6 ± 6.3 mmHg to 16.8 ± 3.8 mmHg at 12 months (p<0.01∗), while the number of medications was reduced from 3.1 ± 1.3 to 1.8 ± 1.4 (p<0.01∗). Survival rate at 12 months was 80%. 9 cases required secondary glaucoma surgery, and 1 case was reported with hypotony at day one, but resolved within one week. Conclusion. Trabectome seems to be safe and effective in patients with preoperative IOP of 30 mmHg or greater. Even in this cohort with high preoperative IOP, the end result is a mean IOP in the physiologic range.

We evaluated the effects of ripasudil on the distal aqueous outflow tract in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) who underwent a 360° suture trabeculotomy ab interno followed by ripasudil treatment beginning 1 month postoperatively. We compared 27 of these patients, by using propensity score analysis, with 27 patients in a matched control group who had no ripasudil treatment. We assessed the changes in the mean intraocular pressure (IOP) and the relationship between the IOP changes and background factors. All eyes had a complete 360° Schlemm’s canal incision and phacoemulsification. The mean IOP at 1 and 3 months after ripasudil administration were significantly reduced by −1.7 ± 1.9 mmHg (p < 0.0001) and −1.3 ± 2.3 mmHg (p = 0.0081) in the ripasudil group, respectively, but IOP in the control group was not significantly reduced. The IOP reduction was significantly associated with the IOP before ripasudil treatment (p < 0.001). In conclusion, the use of ripasudil for patients with OAG after circumferential incision of the Schlemm’s canal produced significant IOP reductions. Ripasudil may affect the distal outflow tract, thereby leading to the IOP reduction.
