From: Transscleral vs endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation: safety and efficacy when combined with phacoemulsification

Fig. 2

Kaplan–Meier curve comparing the cumulative probabilities of failure following phaco/ECP alone, phaco/MP-TSCPC, and phaco alone based on the IOP-reduction criteria. The shaded areas around each plot represent the 95% confidence bands. Failure was defined as reaching NLP vision at any point postoperatively, undergoing additional glaucoma surgery, or the inability to maintain ≥ 20% IOP reduction from baseline with IOP between 5–18 mmHg for two consecutive follow-up visits while maintaining ≤ baseline medications. The log-rank test was used to detect statistical differences between the three curves. IOP = intraocular pressure; phaco = phacoemulsification; MP-TSCPC = Micropulse Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation (IRIDEX Corp., Mountainview, CA); ECP = Endoscopic Cyclophotocoagulation; mmHg = millimeters of mercury
