A Single-Center Observational Study of the Pre-Operative and Post-Operative Corneal Endothelial Cell Density of Patients Undergoing Glaucoma Surgery

Brief description of study

This study aims to investigate corneal endothelial cell migration and healing after glaucoma surgery using non-contact specular microscopy and tomography. Eighty patients undergoing glaucoma surgery will have corneal imaging taken pre-operatively, one month, three months, and six months post-operatively, and lastly at 1 year. Endothelial cell density and corneal thickness will be correlated and analyzed pre- and post-operatively. The focus of our study will be on tube-shunt surgery; other forms of glaucoma surgery such as MIGS may be included for comparison.
