SCOPING: A Multidisciplinary Treatment Protocol for Neovascular Glaucoma with Completely Open or Partially Open Angles

This protocol may be utilized to salvage the conventional outflow pathway for patients with partially or completely open angles. The etiology and diagnosis of neovascular glaucoma have been established. Current treatment strategies include reduction of neovascular drive including panretinal photocoagulation, intravitreal injections, intraocular pressure lowering medications, and filtration surgery. However, a protocol has not been developed to treat neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Our SCOPING protocol may be helpful for glaucoma specialists in treating patients with neovascular glaucoma.
