Abstract
: The XEN gel stent is an ab-interno minimally invasive glaucoma surgery device that reduces intraocular pressure by creating a subconjunctival drainage pathway. XEN intents to provide a safer and less invasive mean of lowering intraocular pressure. As with any new device, there is still some lack of experience and knowledge concerning efficacy, technique, and complications. We report a novel surgical approach for early bleb failure after XEN implantation. Ferreira NP, Pinto JM, Teixeira F, Pinto LA. XEN Gel Stent Early Failure-dye-enhanced Ab-externo Revision.
