title: Combined trabeculectomy and cataract extraction.
abstract: A small personal series of patients with chronic open-angle glaucoma who underwent combined trabeculectomy and cataract extraction is analysed with regard to the effect of the operation on the control of intraocular pressure. The results support the regular use of the operation as an effective means of reducing intraocular pressure.
