Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the XEN® Gel Stent in mild to moderate glaucoma patients undergoing glaucoma surgery.
Detailed description
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the XEN® Gel Stent in mild to moderate glaucoma patients undergoing glaucoma surgery. Follow-up period is 2 years.
Interventions
Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) which consists of implanting a XEN® Gel Stent in the irido-corneal angle of the eye to drain the aqueous humour in the sub-conjunctival space to lower the IOP.

Study design
Intervention model description
Intraocular pressure, adverse events, complications, number of medications in mild to moderate glaucoma patients who underwent XEN® Gel Stent implantation were recorded. Data were collected in a 2 years follow-up.
