Abstract

Glaucoma continues to be the disease leading to vision loss and blindness. Currently, various treatment options are offered for persistent compensation of intraocular pressure, as the main cause of the glaucoma optic neuropathy development. In the last decade, technologies for minimally invasive glaucoma surgery have been actively developing, presenting for patients a good alternative to drug antihypertensive therapy and traditional surgical approaches with minimal trauma, efficiency and quick rehabilitation. The review briefly discusses the various devices and implantation methods used in minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, with examples of studies showing long-term clinical results.
