[Massage of the bulb and intraocular pressure after goniotrepanation (author's transl)].
Intraocular pressure should be controlled via applanation tonometry, beginning with the fourth day after goniotrepanation, for a period of about three weeks, for early detection of postoperative pressure increases which can occur occasionally, so that they may be treated by digital massage of the bulb. This can be effective even in later post-operative pressure increases and support the effect of additional pressure-lowering treatment.
