Innovative use of PreserFlo microshunt in an infant with Sturge-Weber syndrome-related glaucoma: Case report

This case highlights the first successful off-label use of PreserFlo in infants with SWS-associated glaucoma. Early intervention and careful postoperative management can help achieve sustained IOP control. However, further studies are needed to optimize its long-term efficacy in pediatric patients.
