AimTo grade extraocular motility in the field of action of each extraocular muscle following superotemporal glaucoma drainage device (GDD) implantation in a paediatric population and to investigate which drainage device (Ahmed vs Baerveldt) yields less extraocular motility disturbance.MethodsCross-sectional study of children with a GDD implanted consecutively by a single surgeon who underwent ocular motility examination by two masked orthoptists. Ductions in the cardinal positions were graded. Ocular alignment, visual acuity, binocularity, stereopsis and intraocular pressure were also measured, and patient charts were reviewed.ResultsThirty children each had one eye included. Twenty-one eyes had an Ahmed GDD and 9 had a Baerveldt GDD. Mean time between GDD insertion and ocular motility exam was 68 months in the Ahmed group and 19 months in the Baerveldt group. Exotropia was present in 46% and vertical heterotropia in 46% of children post-GDD insertion. Thirty-three percent of eyes had a moderate or severe limitation of elevation in abduction, 30% of elevation in adduction, 10% of abduction and 10% of adduction. There was a trend towards more eyes in the Ahmed group (62%) having at least a moderate limitation in ocular motility (−2 or worse; scale −1 to −4) compared with the Baerveldt group (22%).ConclusionStrabismus is common in children with GDDs. Our motility and alignment findings are consistent with either a mass effect of the device and bleb and/or scarring beneath the plate in the quadrant of the GDD causing dysmotility, most commonly limitation towards the GDD.

Baerveldt Tube

Purpose: To describe a novel technique for tissue dissection during Baerveldt tube surgery. Methods: We present a technique for posterior dissection of conjunctiva and Tenon tissue for the placement of a glaucoma drainage device. Hyaluronidase is used in the early stages of surgery in order to minimize tissue trauma and facilitate easy dissection even through existing adhesions and conjunctival scarring. Results: The technique facilitates convenient dissection through tissues. We did not experience any intraoperative or postoperative complications. Conclusions: The described technique has substantial advantages for Baerveldt tube surgery, specifically in cases of previous ocular surgery and subsequent conjunctival scarring. It is safe and easy to perform, and should be considered in cases of glaucoma drainage device implantation surgeries.

Successful Technique

Purpose. Tube exposure can lead to vision-threatening consequences and requires prompt surgical attention. Posterior repositioning of the tube to the pars plana has previously been reported as a successful technique. However, this method requires a pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Here, we describe a novel technique of repositioning the tube into the ciliary sulcus without requiring PPV. Methods. This is a retrospective interventional case report of two patients who had undergone prior glaucoma drainage device implantation and prior tube exposure repair and developed recurrent tube exposure. Tube exposure in the subjects was repaired by repositioning the tube in the ciliary sulcus. Results. The two eyes remained exposure free postoperatively with 51- and 60-month follow-ups. Conclusions. Repositioning the tube to the ciliary sulcus may be an effective technique to avoid reexposure.
