Abstract:
In the past years there is been a rapid evolution of cataract surgery; however, in glaucoma filtration surgery is still the ‘gold standard’. New techniques and devices have been developed and may change the surgical algorithm. Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) is safe, can be performed ab interno through sub-1.8 mm corneal incisions and a postop intraocular pressure in mid-teens can be obtained.
