    Abstract:

    AIM:To explore the clinical effect of Ahmed glaucoma valve implant combined with lensectomy and vitrectomy for glaucoma secondary to traumatic lens subluxation.METHODS:Nine eyes which performed Ahmed glau-coma valve implant combined with lensectomy and vitrectomy and ciliary sulcus fixation of intraocular lenses for glaucoma secondary to lens subluxation were retros-pectively analyzed.RESULTS:The visual acuity was improved in 8 eyes after surgery.The intraocular pressure decreased from 44.11±8.85mmHg pre-operation to 14.78±5.52mmHg.The complications concluded transient hypotony,tube block-age,and drainage disk encapsulation,and they all recovered well after treatment.CONCLUSION:Ahmed glaucoma valve implant combined with lensectomy and vitrectomy and ciliary sulcus fixation of intraocular lenses is a safe and effective way to treat glaucoma secondary to traumatic lens subluxation.
