Modern trabeculectomy remains the gold-standard surgical option in glaucoma, with excellent long-term success rates and relatively low serious complication rates. However, these improved outcomes imply a careful preoperative risk stratification, a meticulous intraoperative technique and watchful postoperative care. This review discusses some trabeculectomy-related complications and various strategies to prevent or treat these conditions.
