Abstract: Précis: Analysis of filtering bleb morphology using swept-source 3-dimensional anterior segment optical coherence tomography (3D AS-OCT) indicates that phacoemulsification can negatively impact the morphology of preexisting filtering blebs. Purpose: To identify the cross-sectional morphologic changes… read more here.
