Microinvasive Glaucoma Surgery: A Review and Classification of Implant-Dependent Procedures and Techniques [PDF]
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2022 Abstract The aim of this article is to discuss how physiology and anatomical background affect the effectiveness of implant‐dependent microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). First, we provide a micro view of aqueous outflow and tissue behaviour. Second, we review studies exploring the mechanisms of the pressure‐lowering effect of MIGS, as well as tissue

Safety and efficacy of microinvasive glaucoma surgery with cataract extraction in patients with normal-tension glaucoma. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2021 AbstractThis study assesses the safety and efficacy of microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) with cataract extraction in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). In our sample of 45 NTG patients, mean intraocular pressure (IOP) decreased from 13.7 to 12.3 mmHg at 2.5 years, and mean medication burden decreased from 2.0 to 1.1 at 1.5 years.

Microinvasive Glaucoma Surgery: An Evidence-Based Assessment [PDF]
Expert Review of Ophthalmology, 2017 The advent of Microinvasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) offers a novel approach in the treatment of glaucoma with the number of procedures developing at an exciting pace.MIGS procedures aim to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) via four mechanisms: (1) increasing trabecular outflow, (2) increasing outflow via suprachoroidal shunts, (3) reducing aqueous ...
