Abstract

Precis: The present study demonstrates that the surgical success rate of circumferential trabeculotomy is 64.7% according to target intraocular pressure (IOP) <= 21 mm Hg and >= 30% reduction from baseline in patients with neonatal-onset primary congenital glaucoma (PCG), with an average follow-up of 35.1 months.
