Abstract
ABSTRACTGlaucoma Following Cataract Surgery (GFCS) remains a menace, so parents must be counseled prior to cataract removal in children. Age less than 7 months at the time of surgery increases this risk, and IOL placement has no effect. To lower IOP in GFCS, start with drops and before you escalate to surgery, consider phospholine iodide. Then, proceed cautiously with angle surgery and shunts, mixing in cycloablative procedures where appropriate in your hands. With patient-centered models for access, follow-up & adherence to treatment, GFCS can be controlled. Partnering with our certified orthoptist colleagues, we can achieve excellent results for the “whole patient” spanning cataracts, glaucoma, strabismus, and amblyopia.
