OBJECTIVE: To observe the curative effect of acupuncture separation combined with injection of recombinant human interferon α2b(rhIFN α2b) around bulbar conjunctiva on encapsulated filtering bled after trabeculectomy. METHODS: Twelve patients with encapsulated filtering bled after trabeculectomy were subjected to acupuncture separation, then injected with rhIFN α2b around bulbar conjunctiva and followed-up for intraocular pressure(IOP) and the form of filtering bled. RESULTS: The mean IOPs before and after treatment were (27.67 ± 2.96) mmHg and (15.25 ± 3.02) mmHg respectively,which showed significant difference. The filter bled type I, II and III were observed in 3,8 and 1 eyes respectively. CONCLUSION: Acupuncture separation combined with injection of rhIFN α2b around bulbar conjunctiva showed good curative effect on encapsulated filtering bled at early stage and increased the success rate of filtering surgery. It was value of popularization in clinic. LA: Chinese
