In clinical practice, Primary Acute Angle-closure Glaucoma (APACG) is a common disease with an increasing incidence rate and blind rate, and has attracted attention of medical researchers. When a patient suffers both primary acute glaucoma and high tension glaucoma, drug therapy can achieve limited efficacy, and operative treatment is necessary on this occasion. This research mainly explored the safety in treating high tension APACG by compound trabeculectomy, and observed the clinical treatment effect and incident rate of postoperative complications after compound trabeculectomy. The compound trabeculectomy can effectively control the intraocular pressure and decrease the incident rate of postoperative complications, accelerating the rehabilitation of patients.
