Trabeculectomy versus ExPRESS shunt surgery in residency training.

Yvonne M Buys1.   

Abstract

The core curriculum for an ophthalmology residency training program should include surgical procedures relevant to a comprehensive ophthalmologist. Considerations include outcomes (success and complications), technical skill required, applicability to a wide range of disease, and cost. Using these metrics, trabeculectomy should be favored over ExPRESS shunt surgery.
