Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Phacoemulsification with goniotomy  Phacoemulsification is a surgical technique used to extract the lens using ultrasonic power and goniotomy is a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), procedure used to treat glaucoma where opening in trabecular meshwork of eyes (a group of canals that drain the fluid from eye) is made using a 26 gauge needle. In this study phacoemulsification along with goniotomy will be done for management of glaucoma in early onset primary angle closure glaucoma patients. In this pilot study, 50 percent eyes of the sample size diagnosed with EO PACG will be selected after randomization to undergo phacoemulsification of lens with nasal 90 degrees goniotomy. 
Comparator Agent  Trabeculectomy  Trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure where a part of trabecular meshwork of the eye and adjacent structures are removed, and a fistula is created connecting the anterior chamber and subconjunctival space. This allows the aqueous humor to drain out of the eye thereby controlling the intra ocular pressure. In this study, 50 percent eyes from the sample size will be selected after randomization and will undergo trabeculectomy.

Brief Summary  

Objectives

Primary

1.     To do a comparative analysis of efficacy and safety outcomes post-surgery between Phacoemulsification with Goniotomy Vs Trabeculectomy in Early Onset Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma

 

Secondary

 

1.      To find a correlation between biometric parameters including Lens Vault, Lens Thickness and Anterior Chamber Depth with the surgical outcome

2.      ⁠To formulate any biometric cutoffs to perform a particular surgery more safely in these patients

 

Design- Randomized, Parallel Group, Active Controlled

Methodology- Patients diagnosed with Early onset Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma who are willing to participate will be recruited in the study. 50 affected eyes will be taken up for the study. For the study, patients will be recruited from OPD Dr R.P. Centre AIIMS or glaucoma clinic.

The participants will undergo detailed preoperative history taking, clinical examination for best corrected visual acuity , IOP measured with a Goldman applanation tonometer, anterior segment examination and corneal diameter measurement with slit-lamp microscopy, ocular fundus examined with a 90 dioptre lens, refraction, biometry using  IOLMaster 700, anterior chamber angle examination in the dark using Gonioscopy,  Cassia ASOCT for angle parameters and LV, ultrasound bio-microscopy, Visual field assessment and Severity of Glaucoma using Andersons Criteria.

 Patients will undergo Randomization via computer generated randomization and will be undertaken for Phacoemulsification with goniotomy or Trabeculectomy. The patient will be called for follow up on post-operative day 1, day 7, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months.

 

Outcome- Primary outcome parameter will be determined in terms of Percentage reduction in IOP from the overall baseline via each procedure.

Secondary outcome parameters will be Number of medications used for IOP control post-surgery and Incidence of eyes developing complications post-surgery or requiring secondary surgery.
