Abstract
Purpose of review: The advent of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) procedures has ushered in a new era of interventional glaucoma. MIGS has expanded the treatment options for surgeons necessitating a rethinking of the optimal management strategy for patients with glaucoma.
Recent findings: There are several new MIGS devices and procedures available to glaucoma surgeons. With several options available, patient selection is crucial to maximize the utility of MIGS in the context of traditional glaucoma surgery.
Summary: A management algorithm is presented based on our practice pattern to help guide decision-making for glaucoma surgeons. Although we encourage surgeons to continue to broaden their toolkit, we emphasize the continued importance of teaching the next-generation traditional glaucoma surgery in the MIGS era. Future prospective studies are warranted to elucidate the optimal treatment strategy for patients with glaucoma.
