Abstract
A contemporary pediatric trabeculectomy technique augmented with MMC is an effective procedure in the management of glaucoma within the first 2 years of life, as shown by the successful long-term outcomes and low incidence of sight-threatening complications. Trabeculectomy after failed goniotomy surgery or as a primary surgical intervention may offer a phakic infant with glaucoma an excellent opportunity to achieve long-term control of IOP without medications and may be associated with optimal visual outcomes.
