Implant the anmion in scleral valva intraoperative, the sight,intraocular, procurvation and filtering bubble postoperative between 6 to 18 months were observed. Results The preoperative intraocular was (32. 43±5.76) mm Hg and the postoperative intraocular was ( 16. 63±4. 07) mm Hg. there were significant differences between the two intraoculars. The rate of functional filtering bubble formation was 89% with no rejection and no serious complication.
