title: [Methods for trabeculectomy improvement].
abstract: Although the literature provides approximate guidance on the treatment of glaucoma, it remains a complex puzzle with multiple pieces whose importance to the ultimate success varies widely from a person to another. In 1969 trabeculectomy signified a major step in glaucoma surgery becoming the first protected filtering procedure. Performed timely, not as a last therapy resort, trabeculectomy provides a maximum intraocular pressure reduction with a low rate of complications. Moorfield Safer Surgery System combines a number of beneficial chances to the classic trabeculectomy, changes leading to increased efficiency and safety of surgical procedure.
