abstract: Refractory glaucoma in a complicated type of glaucoma of different ethyologies with one same characteristic--intraocular pressure of great resistance to therapy. There are different methods of treatment in such glaucomas, primary surgical options. Ex-PRESS miniature glaucoma shunt implantation was our treatment of choice.
