Clinical outcomes of Preserflo MicroShunt implant procedure in open‑angle glaucoma patients - a 1000 eyes case-series; including subanalysis of combined cataract-glaucoma surgery and standalone surgery in pseudophakic eyes

The MicroShunt provided a sustained reduction in IOP and medication burden with a low incidence of complications over the follow-up period. The outcomes in pseudophakic eyes and those undergoing combined cataract surgery were like the cumulative population. The inclusion of pseudophakic and combined surgery eyes reflects the real-world situation in glaucoma practice. These results build on mid-term evidence to support the reliability and safety of the MicroShunt.

Abstract

The MicroShunt provided a sustained reduction in IOP and medication burden with a low incidence of complications over the follow-up period. The outcomes in pseudophakic eyes and those undergoing combined cataract surgery were like the cumulative population. The inclusion of pseudophakic and combined surgery eyes reflects the real-world situation in glaucoma practice. These results build on mid-term evidence to support the reliability and safety of the MicroShunt.
