Early Trabeculotomy Ab Externo in Treatment of Sturge-Weber Syndrome

Compared to previous studies with a later diagnosis of glaucoma in SWS patients, better outcomes were achieved with an early diagnosis of glaucoma in SWS patients. Early trabeculotomy ab externo was safe and led to good intermediate-term surgical outcomes for early-onset glaucoma in SWS patients. Higher preoperative IOP and corneal edema were associated with a greater risk of surgery failure.
