Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that deep sclerectomy in congenital glaucoma is a safer procedure and may yield better results than trabeculotomy trabeculectomy approach.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Deep Sclerectomy
  • Procedure: Combined Trab
Phase 1

Detailed Description

Non penetrating glaucoma surgery depends on filtration through trabeculo-descmeto window as well as supra-choroidal space less to sub-conjunctival rout. the nature of the operation keeps the globe intact without penetration that leads to less complications compared to penetrating trabeculectomy combined with trabeculotomy.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: DS arm

Deep sclerectomy surgery will be conduct in this arm

Procedure: Deep Sclerectomy
Non penetrating glaucoma surgery is a new procedure in adults that has less post operative complications with good results, it is to be applied in children.
Other Names:
  • Non penetrating DS
  • Active Comparator: Trab arm

    combined Trabeculectomy and Trabeculotomy surgery will be conducted in this arm

    Procedure: Combined Trab
    Combined trabeculectomy and trabeculotomy is a standard surgery for congenital glaucoma, however, it has its known complications.
    Other Names:
  • Combined Trabeculectomy Trabeculotomy
