iStent trabecular micro-bypass stent for open-angle glaucoma
Trabecular micro-bypass stents, commonly known as iStents, are micro-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) devices used to treat open-angle glaucoma. Like other MIGS procedures that enhance trabecular outflow, the iStent lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) by creating a direct channel between the anterior chamber and Schlemm's canal. iStents are typically implanted at the time of phacoemulsification f...
متن کاملA review of the iStent® trabecular micro-bypass stent: safety and efficacy
There is a significant demand for procedures that can effectively treat glaucoma with low risk and good visual outcomes. To fill this void, procedures termed "minimally invasive glaucoma surgery", are gaining in popularity. This review will focus on the safety and efficacy of one such minimally invasive glaucoma surgery procedure, the trabecular micro-bypass stent. This stent is intended to low...
متن کاملDifferential Canalograms Detect Outflow Changes from Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stents and Ab Interno Trabeculectomy
Recently introduced microincisional glaucoma surgeries that enhance conventional outflow offer a favorable risk profile over traditional surgeries, but can be unpredictable. Two paramount challenges are the lack of an adequate training model for angle surgeries and the absence of an intraoperative quantification of surgical success. To address both, we developed an ex vivo training system and a...
متن کاملiStent® Trabecular Microbypass Stent: An Update
Due to the high rates of complications and failure experienced with current glaucoma procedures, there is a continuous search for a safer and more effective glaucoma surgery. A new class of procedures termed minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS) aim to fill this void by offering an alternative method of IOP reduction associated with markedly reduced complication rates and shorter recover...
متن کاملTrabecular meshwork and outflow
Core Concepts • iOP elevation results from increased outflow resistance in the outflow pathways: the trabecular meshwork (TM) and the uveoscleral pathway. • steady-state iOP is found in normal eyes where iOP builds up in response to inflow of aqueous humour to the level sufficient to drive fluid across the resistance of the outflow pathways. • in most glaucomatous eyes, the resistance of the ou...
