Surgeons present varied uses of iStent

Welcome to another edition of CEDARS/ASPENS Debates. CEDARS/ASPENS is a joint society of cornea, cataract and refractive surgery specialists, here to discuss some of the latest hot topics in ophthalmology.There has been much written recently about the use of the iStent (Glaukos), a newer surgical device for the treatment of glaucoma. Rather than our usual format of the two authors debating the merits of this device, John Berdahl, MD, and Carlos Buznego, MD, will each give their perspective on attributes of the iStent. Each opinion addresses somewhat controversial uses of the iStent, with the authors stating their case for use in these situations. We hope you enjoy the discussion.
