Abstract Background:While surgeons usually use donor sclera or half-thickness self-scleral flaps to cover glaucoma drainage implant tubes, implant exposure is not completely preventable. We report our experience of secondary glaucoma requiring glaucoma implant removal and re-installation for two implant exposures.

Case:A 54-year-old man underwent 8 intraocular surgeries, including Baerveldt glaucoma implant(BGI)surgery in the inferotemporal region 1.5 years ago. He reported right-sided ocular pain when he came to our hospital. The BGI tube was retracted and exposed from the conjunctiva. The intraocular pressure(IOP)was high(30-38 mmHg)with concomitant glaucoma medication. We removed the BGI tube and performed Ahmed glaucoma valve(AGV)surgery in the superotemporal region. Eight months after surgery, the AGV plate slid forward and was exposed, and leakage of the aqueous humor was observed. We removed the AGV completely and performed AGV surgery again in the inferonasal region. The IOP is well controlled, and the implant has not been exposed for 3 months after the surgery.

Conclusions:Surgeons should pay attention to implant exposure when performing glaucoma drainage implant surgery. Although implant removal is an effective procedure to treat implant exposure, strategies for treatment of subsequent IOP increase should be ascertained.
