Brief Summary: A clinical trial to establish the long term response of using intraoperative 5-fluorouracil 5-FU versus mitomycin C MMC in trabeculectomy glaucoma surgery Antiproliferative agents such as 5-fluorouracil and Mitomycin C have been used extensively in trabeculectomy surgery to improve the success of the surgery and prevent further visual loss and blindness in glaucoma patients
Detailed Description: Glaucoma is a life-long progressive disease and patients are living longer Therefore a long term full evaluation of the efficacy of intraoperative 5-FU and MMC needs to be performed to assess the true efficacy of MMC compared to 5-FU We therefore propose a long-term prospective study of patients previously enrolled in the prospective study involving the evaluation of single intraoperative application of mitomycin C versus 5-fluorouracil in low to moderate risk glaucoma patients
