Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - Patients of either sex and any race aged 18 years old and above. - Followed by a glaucoma subspecialist at University of Montreal Hospital Center. - Intraocular pressure (IOP) above target and unresponsive to maximal tolerated medical therapy with or without previous surgical intervention. 1. mild glaucoma: IOP > 18 mmHg 2. moderate glaucoma: IOP > 15 mmHg 3. advanced glaucoma: IOP > 12 mmHg - Considered poor candidates for additional filtering surgery or implantation of glaucoma drainage devices. Exclusion Criteria: - Patients unable to give informed consent. - Patients with significant scleral thinning, defined as thinning of more than one clock hour noticed on scleral transillumination. - Ocular infection or inflammation in the study eye in the 2 months prior to enrolment. - Intraocular surgery in the study eye in the 2 months prior to enrolment. |
