The long-term surgical outcomes of the Aurolab aqueous drainage implant versus the Ahmed glaucoma valve for refractory pediatric glaucoma in Saudi children
AADI proves to be a safe and effective option for refractory pediatric glaucoma. The long-term outcomes of AADI were not inferior to AGV. Despite consistently lower IOP and AGM usage in the AADI group from the 3rd to the 60th month, statistical significance was not achieved.
