XEN‐augmented Baerveldt surgical success rate and comparison with the Ahmed Valve
Jorge Teixeira, Filipa; Sousa, David Cordeiro; Machado, Nuno Martins; Caiado, Filipa; Correia Barão, Rafael; Sens, Paula; Pinto, LuisPurpose: The Baerveldt-XEN technique is intended to reduce the risk of early hypotony after Baerveldt implant, while keeping a good long-term intra-ocular pressure (IOP) control. The aim of this study is to discuss the surgical success rate of the Baerveldt-XEN and compare it with the commercially available flow-restrictor device (Ahmed glaucoma valve - AGV). Methods: Single-centre, cohort study. Consecutive gl...
