Glaucoma Surgery

Overview

Glaucoma surgery lowers eye pressure to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve vision. Various surgical options include trabeculectomy, tube shunts, and minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) procedures.

Glaucoma surgery includes trabeculectomy, Ahmed valve, Baerveldt implant, and MIGS procedures like iStent and Xen gel stent. Treatment is individualized based on glaucoma type and severity.
