Clinical Outcomes of Excisional Goniotomy with the Kahook Dual Blade: 6-Year Results
Excisional goniotomy with the KDB effectively lowered the IOP (by an average of 28.0% from baseline) and maintained or further reduced glaucoma medication burdens (by an average of 30.8% from baseline) under an excellent safety profile, independent of phacoemulsification status. The procedure exhibited favorable success for up to 6 years, providing valuable insights into its long-term efficacy as a glaucoma treatment.
