    Abstract:

    AIM: To observe the clinical efficacy of intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with trabeculectomy and conbercept combined with Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation in treatment of neovascular glaucoma(NVG).

    METHODS: Totally 40 cases(40 eyes)of NVG patients selected from our hospital from February 2016 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment methods, they were divided into group A(conbercept with trabeculectomy+ panretinal photocoagulation)and group B(conbercept combined with Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation+ panretinal photocoagulation), 20 cases(20 eyes)in each group. The visual acuity, intraocular pressure, intraocular pressure control rate, neovascularization were observed after 6mo follow-up.

    RESULTS: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in intraocular pressure between the two groups(P>0.05). The intraocular pressure in group B was lower than that in group A(P<0.05)at 6mo after treatment, but there was no significant difference in visual acuity, intraocular pressure control rate and the regression of neovascularization between the two groups(All P>0.05).

    CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation and conbercept combined with trabeculectomy for NVG are safe and effective, but the former is more effective in reducing intraocular pressure.
