The analgesic effect was analysed with visual analogue pain scale.Results: Among all of 357 eyes, 62 eyes underwent peripheral iridectomy, 67 eyes underwent simple trabeculectomy, 167 eyes underwent compound brabeculectomy and 12 eyes nonpenetrating trabecular surgery. The effects of anesthesia were as follows: 304 eyes(85.2%) were painless (Grade I ), 50 eyes (14.0%) were slight painful (Grade Ⅱ ), and 3 eyes (0.8%) were more painful (Grade Ⅲ ) during surgery. And no severe complications were observed in all the cases during surgery and postoperatively. Amaurosis fugax was not observed in the glaucoma patients at the late stage with narrow visual fields and poor visual ability.Conclusion: Topical anesthesia combined with subconjunctival anesthesia is effective,safe and simple anesthesia alternative in routine anti-glaucomatous surgery, especially for the glaucoma patients at the late stage with narrow visual fields and poor visual ability. It is worthy of being applied widely.展开更多

The core of EBM is that decision-making during clinical practices must be based on objective research results.With the rapid development of modern ophthalmology, some former viewpoints according to experience-based medicine face challenges. Evidence-based ophthalmology (EBO) is imperative under the situation. Glaucoma, as a disease resulting in blindness, which can not be cured by operation, is thought more and more of by medical management officials and doctors. One challenge for ophthalmologists entering the 21st century will be to make clinical decisions based on valid information or evidence rather than intuition, hearsay, or peer practice. How can we do? Here reviews the application of EBM in medical management of glaucoma since EBM' s naissance and give a reference.展开更多
