Group 1: eyes without previous angle surgery; Group 2: eyes with previous angle surgeries. Success was defined as an intraocular pressure (IOP) <21 mm Hg with at least a 30% reduction from preoperative pressure levels with (qualified success) or without (complete success) the use of antiglaucoma medication. Eyes undergoing a secondary surgical procedure were classified as failures and censored from analysis subsequent to the intervention.
