INTRODUCTION: The relationship between early and late postoperative intraocular pres- sure (IOP) after glaucoma surgery remains unclarified. Few published studies have investigated the long-term effects of early IOP after trabeculectomy and nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy, and the existing ones have differing results. This study aims to evaluate the effects of early postoperative IOP after these two procedures ...
