The incidence of grade Ⅲ FAC following glaucoma filtration surgery was determined. Regression analysis was performed to investigate the influence of glaucoma type, surgical approach, age, and preoperative intraocular pressure(IOP) on the risk of postoperative FAC.RESULTS: A total of 2179 eyes receiving anti-glaucoma surgery were included. Ninety-one eyes suffered from postoperative FAC, with an overall incidence rate of 4.18%. Of 471 eyes with primary open angle glaucoma(POAG), grade Ⅲ FAC occurred in only 3 eyes(0.64%). Primary angleclosure glaucoma(PACG) was diagnosed in 1076 eyes, 39(3.62%) of which developed grade Ⅲ FAC, including 12 eyes(12/300, 4%) with acute PACG(aP ACG) and 27 eyes(27/776, 3.48%) with chronic PACG(c PACG). Six of 259 eyes(2.32%) with secondary glaucoma, 28 of 186 eyes(15.05%) with neovasular glaucoma, 1 of 66 eyes(1.52%) with congenital glaucoma, and 14 of 115 eyes(12.17%) with remnant glaucoma suffered from grade Ⅲ FAC. Of 6 eyes with mixed glaucoma, none developed grade Ⅲ FAC after surgery. When stratified by surgical approach, 24 of 766 eyes(3.13%) undergoing trabeculectomy, 21 of 924 eyes(2.27%) treated by trabeculectomy plus mitomycin C(MMC), 18 of 109 eyes(16.51%) undergoing Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation, 23 of 201 eyes(11.44%) managed by Ahmed implantation plus MMC, and 5 of 133 eyes(3.76%) treated by Ahmed implantation plus lens extraction or vitrectomy developed grade Ⅲ FAC.
