title: [Computer program for antiglaucomatous surgeries analysis].
abstract: Computer analysis of long-term results of the surgical treatment of glaucoma needs suitable program for database data download retrospectively and prospectively as well. We composed a universal database program Glaucoma Access 97 for patients' follow-up in glaucoma surgery centers. Data about 1073 antiglaucomatous filtering surgeries from the period 1990-2000 were downloaded. The program permits to download data about the patients before the surgery, details about the operation procedure, and from the follow-up visits into the database using special software questionnaire sheets. Outcome from the database may be data about long-term IOP compensation, visual acuity changes, and treatment after the surgery. Evaluation of the data allows to follow up the successfulness of the treatment of specified groups of patients and to compare results of surgeons and individual departments as well.
