Abstract

Purpose. Analysis of the effectiveness of surgical treatment of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma associated with cataract the first stage realization of cataract phacoemulsification with IOL implantation (PHACO), and the second stage - microinvasive nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy (MNPDS). Material and methods. The results of 234 cases of performing PHACO and MNPDS at various stages have been analyzed. The main group included patients who underwent PHACO, followed by MNPDS – 39 persons, 40 eyes. The group was divided into a subgroup based on the date of the second intervention. 1 subgroup – patients who underwent MNPDS 1 month after PHACO (11 cases); 2 subgroup – 3 months after PHACO (29 cases). The control group included patients who underwent MNPDS followed by PHACO – 180 persons, 195 eyes. Also, subgroups of patients were identified for whom PHACO + IOL was performed in the second stage after 1 month – 1 subgroup (99 cases) and after 3 months – 2 subgroup (96 cases). Results. Patients of the main group showed a significant decrease in intraocular pressure after each stage of treatment. in the control group, intraocular pressure decreased after the first stage of treatment, but increased 6 months after surgery. Conclusions. According to the study, in primary open-angle glaucoma associated with cataract, the most persistent hypotensive effect is observed when the first stage of cataract phacoemulsification is performed, and the second stage is antiglaucoma surgical intervention. Key words: glaucoma, cataract, cataract phacoemulsification, microinvasive nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy.
