PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of standard goniotomy surgery for young patients with refractory glaucoma associated with chronic childhood uveitis. DESIGN: Interventional case series. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed all goniotomies performed at our institution for patients with a diagnosis of refractory glaucoma associated with chronic childhood uveitis from 1994 to 2000 (this was our first-line surgery for such patients during these years). Uveitis was medically controlled in all cases for at least 6 weeks before surgery. The main outcome measure was time after surgery without failure. Success was defined as final intraocular pressure (IOP)
