Reconstruction of the filtering bleb architecture with donor sclera results in improved intraocular pressure while maintaining visual acuity. Post-operative care is required to support the restored bleb function. Our findings support the use of scleral patch graft as an effective and safe method for the long-term management of hypotony and bleb leak as a late complication of glaucoma filtration surgery.
