Trabeculectomy is a specialized eye surgery performed to treat glaucoma by relieving intraocular pressure (IOP) when medication or laser treatment fails. At The Retina Centre, we offer safe, effective, and advanced eye trabeculectomy procedures with minimal downtime.
What is Trabeculectomy?
Trabeculectomy eye operation involves creating a small drainage channel in the eye to allow excess fluid (aqueous humor) to escape, thereby reducing eye pressure. This procedure helps prevent further damage to the optic nerve and preserves vision in glaucoma patients.
Who Needs a Trab Eye Operation?
You may be a candidate for trabeculectomy surgery if:
Your IOP remains high despite medication or laser therapy
You have moderate to advanced glaucoma
Your vision is at risk due to pressure buildup
Our specialists assess your condition in detail before recommending the trab eye operation.
