Info

Intraoperative and postoperative complications were uncommon, occurring in less than 3 percent of patients. Details of the incidence and nature of these complications are shown in the charts below. The need to reoperate within 90 days due to postoperative complications or to recurring IOP elevation occurred in 2.4 percent of patients. Despite the high level of complexity of a significant number of glaucoma surgery cases at the Cole Eye Institute, we are able to achieve a high level of efficacy in reducing IOP through surgical intervention, with a low risk of intraoperative or postoperative complications.

Oculoplastic Surgery Oculoplastic service outcomes were divided into three categories: eyelid surgery, lacrimal surgery and orbital surgery. There were 792 oculoplastic surgeries performed from January 2006 through September 2007. Distribution of Oculoplastic Surgeries N = 792 18.3% Lacrimal 10.5% Orbital 71.2% Eyelid Eyelid surgery outcome measures included intraoperative complications, postoperative eyelid symmetry and reoperation rate (defined as a return to the OR within 90 days). A total of 564 eyelid surgeries were performed during the above mentioned period. Intraoperative complications were rare, comprising only 0.5 percent of eyelid procedures. Similarly, the reoperation rate was very low, with only 0.9 percent of cases requiring a second procedure.
