Results of surgical treatment of secondary glaucoma (caused by uveitis, aphakia, injury) in adults and children are presented. Topical and general corticosteroids were applied immediately after trabeculectomy (deep sclerectomy). A favourable percentage of normalization of the IOP was observed together with a small amount of early and late postoperative complications.
