['To present a comprehensive approach for the management of patients with neovascular glaucoma (NVG) aiming to preserve visual function and complement pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP) by anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment and anti-glaucoma surgery.', 'This study includes a prospective, interventional case series. A process flow chart for NVG management was designed. Totally 50 patients (51 eyes) with NVG were included. Of these, 43 patients (44 eyes) completed the treatment process. Patients were divided into central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) groups according to their original diagnosis. Intraocular pressure (IOP), visual function, and the status of iris and angle neovascularization were recorded before and after treatment.', 'Patients were followed up for 6-30 months (mean 12.2\xa0months). The IOP of all 44 patients was effectively controlled and was significantly less after treatment (16.68\u2009±\u20094.69\xa0mmHg) than before treatment (42.59\u2009±\u20099.44\xa0mmHg, P\u2009<\u20090.05). Thirty-nine eyes displayed controlled IOP (≤21\xa0mmHg) after treatment. Visual acuity improved, to some extent, in 32 eyes (72.9\xa0%), and 12 eyes (27.3\xa0%) had a visual acuity better than 0.1. There was no significant difference in IOP between the PDR and CRVO groups at the end of follow-up (P\u2009=\u20090.8657), but the visual acuity in the PDR group was much better than that in the CRVO group (P\u2009=\u20090.0079).'] Is anti-VEGF treatment the key strategy for neovascular glaucoma management in the short term?
