Summary

The investigators hypothesize that intracameral Triesence during glaucoma surgery will provide lower intraocular pressure through better control of ocular inflammation, thus leading to a more successful filtering procedure.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Triesence

At end of standard glaucoma surgery and the anterior chamber is reformed with balanced salt solution or viscoelastic to an adequate intraocular pressure, 0.2cc of Triesence will be delivered into the anterior chamber through the previously created paracentesis wound.

DRUG

balanced salt solution BSS

At end of standard glaucoma surgery, the anterior chamber is reformed with balanced salt solution or viscoelastic to an adequate intraocular pressure.
