Lee EK, Yun YJ, Lee JE, Yim JH, Kim CS. Changes in corneal endothelial cells after Ahmed glaucoma valve Implantation: 2-year follow-up. Am J Ophthalmol 2009;148:361–367.


In the September 2009 issue, an error occurs in the fifth column of Table 3 . The baseline ECD count in the supratemporal area in the control was incorrectly stated as 2152±628, this should be 2550±589 at baseline. The corrected Table 3 is shown below.
