A New Polymeric Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Implant

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 9, May 6, 2024.
A novel glaucoma implant–minimally invasive, polymeric, and potentially biodegradable–is presented. Made of a unique thermoplastic using replica molding, this device addresses common postoperative complications associated with rigid metallic implants. The potential biodegradability of the implant after implantation suggests a promising new approach for
