As cataract occurs frequently in patients with glaucoma, combining phacoemulsification and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation has been gaining attention recently due to its minimally invasive nature. A variety of studies had evaluated the efficacy and safety of this procedure and had shown extremely promising results. This review article has shown here that combined phacoemulsification and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation procedure could effectively reduce intraocular pressure in medically uncontrolled glaucoma patients while avoiding serious complications associated with traditional cyclophotocoagulation procedure and adverse effects related to filtering surgery such as trabeculectomy.
由于白内障在青光眼患者中经常出现,近年来,超声乳化白内障吸除术联合内镜睫状体光凝术因其微创性而受到关注。各种研究评估了该手术的有效性和安全性,并显示出非常有前景的结果。这篇综述文章表明,超声乳化白内障吸除术联合内镜睫状体光凝术可以有效降低药物治疗无法控制的青光眼患者的眼压,同时避免与传统睫状体光凝术相关的严重并发症以及与小梁切除术等滤过性手术相关的不良反应。
