36-Month Outcomes of Standalone Kahook Dual Blade Goniotomy Compared with Ab-Interno Closed Conjunctiva Xen Gel Stent Implantation
Both KDB goniotomy and Xen gel stent implantation significantly lowered the IOP and antiglaucoma medication burden in patients with moderate-to-severe OAG. While the Xen gel stent is frequently used to treat moderate-to-severe OAG patients with uncontrolled IOP, standalone KDB goniotomy may be equally effective as a long-term intervention, reducing the need for subsequent glaucoma surgery.
