Abstract

This retrospective study was conducted to determine the outcomes of combined extraction with intraocular lens implant performed by a fellow during glaucoma fellowship. All of the surgeries were performed under supervision of faculty and all intraoperative and early postoperative complications were recorded. Total 19 eyes of 19 patients were included in the study, among which 11 (57.9%) were males and 8 (42.1%) were right eyes. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved in 17 (89.5%) eyes from the baseline while 1 eye showed no change and deterioration in 1 eye. There was improvement in IOP from baseline 20.11 + 7.36 mmHg to 13.56 + 3.28 mmHg (p = 0.01).
