1. INTRODUCTION
Flat anterior chambers (ACs) and choroidal effusions are well described complications of
glaucoma filtration surgery, including trabeculectomy and drainage implant surgery. More
common during the era of full-thickness glaucoma filtration surgery, both complications
became less frequent with guarded trabeculectomy. However, with anti-metabolite use,
particularly mitomycin C (MMC), they have become more common once more. Preopera-
tive planning can reduce their occurrence and timely treatment prevents adverse outcomes.
