Description Based on experiences authors suggest that deep sclerectomy allows effective lowering of intraocular pressure, without necessity of opening anterior chamber. It brings lower incidence of complications compared to classical penetrating trabeculectomy. Use of implant increases success of surgery due to intrascleral fibrosis reduction. Authors documented better effect of non-absorbable implant T-Flux© compared to absorbable collagen implant Staar©. The highest incidence of intrascleral fibrosis was in group of patients that underwent deep sclerectomy without implant.
