Table 1 Eye Profiles of Children Before Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy for Primary Congenital Glaucoma, According to the Type of Ophthalmic Surgeon (Pediatric Ophthalmologist vs Trainee Ophthalmologist)
Table 2 Intraocular Pressure Without Antiglaucoma Medications at Different Follow-Up Visits After Non-Penetrating Deep Sclerectomy for Primary Congenital Glaucoma (Surgery Performed by an Expert Pediatric Ophthalmologist vs Trainee Pediatric Ophthalmologists)
Figure 1 Intraocular pressure (IOP) before and after non-penetrating deep sclerectomy surgery performed by pediatric ophthalmologists and trainees to treat primary congenital glaucoma. The X axis denotes the operating surgeon groups and different times of IOP measurement. The Y axis denotes the IOP (mmHg). The boxplots denote the median IOP values of eyes operated upon by consultants (Orange) and trainee pediatric ophthalmologists (black). The upper and lower ends of the vertical bars denote the 75% and 25% quartiles of the median.
