Impact of prior posterior-approach ptosis repair on conjunctiva-related glaucoma surgery complications

Key Points

• To assess whether prior posterior approach ptosis repair affects complications during glaucoma surgery.
• Observational study design
• Assessment of intraoperative and postoperative complications
• Comparison of complication rates in patients with and without prior ptosis repair
• No significant increase in intraoperative complications
• No significant increase in postoperative bleb-related complications
• Findings support the safety of prior ptosis repair for future glaucoma surgeries
