Anchor Suture

A new technique of correcting tube-corneal touch is described in a case of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation. This technique repositions the intracameral tube without externalization unlike the standard procedures which aim to correct tube-corneal touch. The technique makes use of a transscleral supracapsular anchor suture to facilitate repositioning of the tube within the ciliary sulcus. Feasible only in pseudophakic and aphakic patients, either a preexisting iridectomy or intraoperative iridectomy is an essential prerequisite to perform this procedure. The final positioning of the tube within the sulcus potentially prevents chronic rubbing of the iris by polypropylene suture as opposed to a transcameral suture.
