Flow characterization and structural alterations in Ahmed glaucoma FP7 tubes after in-vitro aging in silicone oil
Prolonged exposure to SO structurally altered the AGV FP7 tube segments by expanding their cross-sectional area, potentially leading to increased flow rates. These results may inform clinicians about potential in-vivo interactions in patients with the simultaneous presence of glaucoma drainage devices and intraocular SO.
