Trabeculectomy: A Key Solution for Glaucoma Management

Welcome to the Nishant Taneja Eye Clinic blog, where we provide expert insights into advanced eye care solutions available at our top-rated clinic in Tirana. Today, we focus on a crucial surgical procedure for glaucoma management: trabeculectomy. Learn how this procedure can help control intraocular pressure, preserve vision, and why Nishant Taneja Eye Clinic is your best choice for this life-saving treatment.

What is Trabeculectomy?

Trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure designed to treat glaucoma by creating a new drainage pathway for the eye’s aqueous humor (fluid). This helps to lower intraocular pressure (IOP), which, if left untreated, can cause optic nerve damage and lead to vision loss. Trabeculectomy is typically recommended for patients with glaucoma who have not responded adequately to medications or laser treatments.

How Trabeculectomy Works

The procedure involves the following steps:

1. Creating a Drainage Flap: The surgeon makes a small incision in the sclera (the white part of the eye) to create a flap.
2. Forming a Bleb: A tiny reservoir, called a bleb, is formed under the conjunctiva (the thin, clear tissue covering the sclera). This bleb serves as a new drainage site for the aqueous humor.
3. Fluid Drainage: The aqueous humor flows out of the eye through the new pathway, into the bleb, where it is absorbed into the surrounding tissue, thus reducing intraocular pressure.

Benefits of Trabeculectomy

Trabeculectomy offers several significant benefits for patients with glaucoma:

• Effective IOP Reduction: The procedure is highly effective in lowering intraocular pressure, helping to prevent further optic nerve damage.
• Long-Term Management: Trabeculectomy provides a long-term solution for managing glaucoma, often reducing the need for ongoing medication.
• Vision Preservation: By controlling IOP, trabeculectomy helps preserve vision and prevents the progression of glaucoma-related vision loss.
