Abstract
We studied the postoperative course of two groups of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and small residual visual fields undergoing trabeculectomy. We found that there is a considerable risk of sudden loss of visual field after operation on these patients.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
