★★ Abstract. These Viewpoints papers explore the surgical options for a 71-year-old African-American patient with uncontrolled intraocular pressure on maximally tolerated medical therapy. Dr. Rockwood argues for trabeculectomy with an antimetabolite, and Dr. Coleman presents the case for implanting a drainage device. (Surv Ophthalmol 46:275–282, 2001. © 2001 by Elsevier Science Inc.
