PURPOSE: To reduce hypotony and shallowing of the anterior chamber after seton implantation. METHODS: The silicone tube is ligated with an 8-0 nylon suture and a clear corneal graft placed over the tube to facilitate postoperative laser suture lysis. RESULTS: Laser suture lysis has been performed in 34 cases to date with a follow-up period of up to 26 months. No severe complications occurred after laser suture lysis. CONCLUSIONS: This technique provides another option to increase drainage postoperatively without the risk of releasable sutures or instrumentation within the eye.
