The role of antimetabolites in filtration surgery for neovascular glaucoma: intermediate‐term follow‐up

. Purpose: To compare the intermediate‐term efficacy of 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) and Mitomycin C (MMC) as adjunctive antimetabolites in neovascular glaucoma (NVG) filtration surgery. Methods: Forty consecutive eyes of 40 patients with NVG refractory to medical therapy were randomized to receive antimetabolite‐augmented trabeculectomy. Eighteen eyes received postoperative 5‐FU (5‐FU group) and 22 eyes received intraoperative, low‐dose (0.2 mg/ml)...
