iStent inject in phakic open angle glaucoma

The effectiveness and complication profile of the iStent inject implantation among different open angle glaucoma subgroups were analyzed. In this retrospective cohort outcome study, 35 consecutive patients suffering from glaucoma (primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) N = 17, pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEX) N = 15, and pigmentary glaucoma (PG) N = 3) were treated with the iStent inject. The intraocular pressure (IOP) and the number of antiglaucoma medications before and after surgery were evaluated. In POAG, the mean IOP at 6 months measured 14.19 ± 1.38 mmHg with an average decrease of 33 % from preoperative IOP (p
