Purpose
We present our own antiglaucoma procedure using glassy carbon fibre. Material and methods Our procedure belongs to filtration type of antyglaucoma operations, so we call it carbofiltratio. 32 carbofiltratio procedures were performed. All our patients had neovascular glaucoma. Each patient complained of intensive pain, because of increasing intraocular pressure. Results The follow-up time was 3 month to 2 years. All patients were periodically tested for intraocular pressure, pain and condition of surgery spot. In most of our cases we achieved to reduce pain and intraocular pressure without hypotensive drugs. 34.4% of our procedure was insufficient. We had to make enucleation or reoperate. All these procedures were performed before 60 days after first operation. keywords:
