Summary

Purpose: To report the follow-up data for patients who had XEN45 gel stent implantation, a new method of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).

Material and Methods: Fifteen eyes of fifteen patients who had XEN45 gel stent implantation surgery were investigated in the study. All the patients were examined preoperatively and at the following postoperative time points: 1 day; 1 and 2 weeks; and 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry. Combined surgical procedures (XEN 45 + phacoemulsification + intraocular lens) were performed in the cases that had cataracts in addition to glaucoma.

DEVICE

XEN45 gel stent implantation in glaucoma surgery

The XEN gel stent (Allergan, Dublin, Ireland) is a recently developed, permanent, ab interno collagen implant that reduces IOP by draining aqueous fluid from the anterior chamber into the subconjunctival space
