A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Single-Center Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Innovative Tube Trabeculectomy Compared to Conventional Trabeculectomy in Patients With Advanced and Refractory Glaucoma
This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of a novel surgical technique, Innovative Tube Trabeculectomy (ITT), against conventional trabeculectomy in patients with advanced and refractory glaucoma. ITT incorporates a unique preoperative regimen and surgical modifications, including a deep extended scleral tunnel, X-shaped non-absorbable suture, and a nasolacrimal tube implant, designed to enhance aqueous humor outflow and reduce postoperative fibrosis. Participants will be randomized to receive either ITT or conventional trabeculectomy and followed for 12 months to assess intraocular pressure control, medication use, complication rates, and bleb morphology.
