    Background After implantation of a XEN gel stent scarring of the conjunctiva with elevation of the intraocular pressure (IOP) is a frequent occurrence. This article describes a surgical revision technique with opening of the conjunctiva and removal of scar tissue. In order to standardize the technique the surgical procedure was divided into nine steps. These steps are shown in the video and a series of images. Methods Surgery is divided into nine steps: 1) corneal traction suture and topical application of suprarenin, 2) opening of the conjunctiva along the limbus, 3) preparation posteriorly towards the fornix, 4) separation of the stent from the surrounding scar tissue, 5) precise preparation of the stent, 6) removal of additional scar tissue not adhering to the stent, 7) functional testing of the stent, 8) mitomycin C application, 9) closing of the conjunctiva with two corner sutures on the limbus. Results After surgery a diffuse filtering bleb is formed. In the literature increased success rates up to 90% (criterion: no further surgery necessary) after open conjunctival revision have been described. Severe side effects are not to be expected and are comparable to those of primary surgery. Conclusion Open revision of the conjunctiva after XEN gel stent implantation leads to an effective and enduring lowering of IOP. Revision surgery can be carried out even after a long time period and can keep the patient free of antiglaucomatous drops. Experience in surgery of filtering blebs is advantageous when performing open revision of the conjunctiva

    A Case of Endocarditis Following Endophthalmitis After XEN45 Gel Stent Implantation

    Introduction: We report a case of endophthalmitis and endocarditis that developed after stent perforation following a XEN45 Gel Stent implantation 10 months ago. Case Report: A 79-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of endophthalmitis of the right eye. The patient had undergone XEN45 Gel Stent implantation in the same eye 10 months ago. On examination, the conjunctiva was perforated by the stent, and it was no longer covered by the conjunctiva. A 27-G pars plana vitrectomy with intravitreal antibiotic injection was performed. Moreover, the patient received intravenous antibiotic treatment and local anti-inflammatory and anti-infectious therapy. Streptococcus gordonii was identified as a bacterial cause of the endophthalmitis. Therefore, transesophageal echocardiography was performed, which revealed aortic valve endocarditis. Discussion: Although not proven, it is possible that the exposed XEN45 Gel Stent served as an entry point for S. gordonii, which caused the exogenous endophthalmitis and subsequent endocarditis. S. gordonii belongs to the viridans group streptococci, which is the etiological agent for endocarditis which is a severe and potentially life-threatening infection. Ophthalmologists should therefore consider the risk of systemic infections as endocarditis after endophthalmitis, particularly caused by the viridans group streptococci, which are known etiological agents of endocarditis

    Predictability of ab-interno trabeculectomy success in the subsequent eye: A contralateral eye comparison study

    No full text
    Background To determine whether the outcome of the first eye may serve as a predictor for intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effectiveness in the second eye following bilateral ab interno trabeculectomy. Methods This retrospective single-centre study included 168 eyes from 84 participants, who underwent combined Trabectome surgery with phacoemulsification cataract surgery in a hospital setting. The clinical endpoint was defined as either 'success' or 'failure' based on four separate scores at the longest follow-up time point: IOP at follow-up 20%; IOP = 40% (Score C); and the sole absence of re-surgery according to the discretion of the surgeon (Score D). Results No significant difference was observed between the outcomes of first and second eyes. The frequency of success in the second eye after effective surgery in the first eye significantly exceeded that after prior failure. Within our analysis, the probability calculations determined a 75% chance of success following prior success for Score A. If surgery in the first eye failed, the chance of success in the subsequent eye was 37%. The corresponding probabilities were 79% and 32% for Score B, 56% and 9% for Score C, and 99% and 50% for Score D. Conclusion The results of our study offer a useful tool to assess the success of subsequent eye surgeries based on the outcome in the initial eye, owing to the high predictive potential

    Partial Coherence Laser Interferometry in Highly Myopic versus Emmetropic Eyes

    Purpose: To investigate the reliability of partial coherence laser interferometry for optical biometry in highly myopic eyes. Methods: Axial length measurements by the IOLMaster (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany) with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ≥2 were performed in 52 consecutive myopic subjects with axial length ≥26.5 mm and 45 emmetropic patients before cataract surgery. Axial length measurements and SNR were analyzed and compared among the two study groups. Results: Axial length measurements were feasible in 46 of 52 (88.5%) highly myopic eyes and in 41 of 45 (91.1%) eyes with normal axial length. To achieve two reliable axial length values with SNR ≥2, a mean number of 2.06±0.25 measurements was necessary in myopic eyes and 2.10±0.37 in emmetropic counterparts. Mean SNR after two measurements was 4.98±2.44 in myopic eyes versus 5.56±2.32 in control eyes. Even though successful measurement was independent of preoperative visual acuity, patients with visual acuity better than 20/63 showed significantly higher SNR values. Conclusions: Partial coherence laser interferometry shows satisfying feasibility and good signal quality for axial length determination in highly myopic eyes with stable retinal condition and clear media
