Collagen Matrix implantation in Glaucoma Filtering Surgery

If mitomycin -C is applied, a single cellulose sponge soaked with Mitomycin-C(MMC) (0.2mg/ml - 0.4mg/ml) is fashioned into an approximate 2.0 × 4.0 mm rectangular shape and applied to the scleral bed and subconjunctival space taking care to avoid exposure to the conjunctival wound edge. Application time is 2 minutes for MMC. Then, the area treated is copiously irrigated with balanced salt solution. After operation, appropriate anti-inflammatory and antibiotic eye-drops will be prescribed.
