To provide high resolution in vitro and in vivo characterization of the post-trabectome anterior chamber angle. We used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to obtain high resolution images of the post-trabectome angle in cadaver eyes. We then characterized trabecular meshwork strips removed during the procedure using histopathology. Finally,we imaged the post-Trabectome angle in two patients using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM).
