Description
Summary:This article provides an overview of real-world outcomes in glaucoma surgical procedures. While randomized clinical trials provide valuable insights, they do not fully reflect real-world clinical practice. Real-world studies enable the evaluation of outcomes in uncontrolled settings and play a crucial role in counselling and decision-making for glaucoma treatment. By examining real-world data the article aims to identify rare adverse events that may go unnoticed in controlled clinical trials. The focus is on assessing the effectiveness and safety of glaucoma surgical procedures beyond the controlled trial setting.
