Long-term results of glaucoma micro-stent encouraging
Implantation of the CyPass micro-stent provides long-term control of IOP and a significant reduction in medication, according to one surgeon.“The effect is durable. I have the most patients with 7 years of follow-up, and reduction of IOP is on average the same that was achieved a few days after the operation. The reduction of medications is as well consistent, from three to four before to one or two after, or even no medications at all,” Magda Rau, MD, OSN Europe Edition Associate Editor, told Ocular Surgery News.
