A review of the iStent® trabecular micro-bypass stent: safety and efficacy
Clinical Ophthalmology, 2015 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 ...

Trabecular Meshwork Thickness Measured by Swept-Source AS-OCT as a Predictor of Surgical Outcomes After Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent Implantation [PDF]
Journal of Clinical MedicineBackground: Although minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), including trabecular micro-bypass stent implantation, is safe, its surgical outcomes remain variable, with limited reliable success predictors. We evaluated whether preoperative trabecular meshwork (TM) thickness is associated with surgical outcomes after iStent inject® W implantation ...

Effect of iStent Trabecular Micro-Bypass device on outflow system morphology
Modeling and Artificial Intelligence in Ophthalmology, 2020 Purpose: Rigorous clinical testing has established that Schlemm’s canal cross-sectional area (SC-CSA) is reduced in glaucomatous eyes. However, to date, it is unclear whether trabecular bypass procedures impact the morphology of the proximal aqueous outflow tract, or if the introduction of a local region of low outflow resistance adversely affects SC ...
