What is the success of bleb needling?<br />

The procedure works in more than half the eyes<br />

operated on to restore and improve drainage. It is<br />

most successful if the trabeculectomy operation has<br />

been performed recently.<br />

The information here is intended as a guide only,<br />

as each patient’s experience will be different. If you<br />

require any further information or are concerned<br />

about your eye following this procedure, please<br />

contact your consultant’s secretary.<br />

The hospital is able to arrange for an<br />

interpreter to assist you in communicating<br />

effectively <strong>with</strong> staff during your stay<br />

through INTRAN.<br />

If you need an interpreter or a person to sign,<br />

please let us know.<br />
