This video shows the surgical technique for performing the glaucoma trabeculotomy surgery. This procedure involves cannulating Schlemm’s canal externally and ripping into the anterior chamber to improve overall drainage. This treatment is primarily done for primary congenital glaucoma, especially with corneal clouding that would preclude goniotomy.

In this video, the surgeon creates a square flap prior to the “scratch-down.”
