    • Abstract:
      Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of measuring biomechanical parameters using the Corvis ST to predict the occurrence of hypotony maculopathy and choroidal detachment (CD) following trabeculectomy or bleb needling revision with mitomycin C.
      Design: Clinical cohort study.
      Methods: This study included 100 eyes of 100 patients who underwent trabeculectomy (88 eyes of 88 patients) or bleb needling (12 eyes of 12 patients) with mitomycin C. A significant predictor of hypotony complications was identified from (1) operation (trabeculectomy or bleb needling), (2) age, (3) sex, (4) disease type (primary open-angle glaucoma, exfoliation glaucoma or other), (5) lens status (phakia or pseudophakia), (6) preoperative Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) intraocular pressure (IOP), (7) preoperative central corneal thickness (CCT), (8) preoperative axial length (AL), (9) preoperative anterior chamber depth, (10) "Min IOP" (IOP value when hypotony complications occurred, otherwise the minimum IOP during 3 months from trabeculectomy or bleb needling), (11) preoperative corneal curvature, and (12-24) 12 Corvis ST parameters using multivariate logistic regression.
      Results: There were 13 and 21 eyes developed hypotony maculopathy and CD, respectively. Male gender, greater preoperative GAT IOP, and greater highest concavity deflection Amplitude were significant predictors of the occurrence of hypotony maculopathy (P < .05). On the other hand, shorter AL, thinner CCT, greater preoperative GAT IOP and pseudophakia were significant predictors of the occurrence of CD (P < .05).
      Conclusions: A careful attention should be paid to the occurrence of hypotony maculopathy with male gender and greater highest concavity deflection Amplitude despite higher preoperative GAT IOP. Different risk factors were identified; shorter AL, thinner CCT, greater preoperative GAT IOP, and pseudophakia.
