Purpose: To report successful use of a combination of autologous blood injection and bleb compression sutures to treat overfiltration with hypotony maculopathy after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C.
Methods: Two patients underwent the combined procedure and were followed until visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP) were stable over three consecutive visits (4 to 9 months).
Results: Both patients experienced improvement in visual acuity both subjectively and objectively, and both patients had an elevation in IOP that persisted over three consecutive visits.
Conclusions: Combination autologous blood injection and bleb compression suture placement may be an effective means of treating hypotony maculopathy after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C.
