Evaluation of Changes in Ocular Tissue Elasticity Before and After Trabeculectomy Using Shear Wave Elastography

Objective: This study aimed to compare time-dependent changes in visual acuity (VA), central corneal thickness (CCT), intraocular pressure (IOP), and the structure and elasticity of ocular tissues, as measured by shear wave elastography (SWE), in the preoperative, postoperative 1st week, and 1st month periods. Methods: This prospective observational study with repeated measurements included 22 individuals aged 44–86 years who underwent trabeculectomy for medically resistant glaucoma. VA, CCT, an
