Abstract
The advent of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) has expanded the treatment options available for glaucoma by providing options for reducing intraocular pressure without the serious complication profile associated with incisional glaucoma surgery. MIGS devices aim to enhance aqueous outflow through the trabecular pathway or to bypass this pathway with drainage of fluid into the suprachoroidal or subconjunctival spaces. Having a wide range of glaucoma treatment options available helps tailor treatment to patients' individual intraocular pressure targets and aetiologies of glaucoma. This review will describe the categories and mechanisms of MIGS, comment on their relative efficacies, safety data, advantages and limitations and explore potential future changes in the glaucoma treatment paradigm in relation to MIGS.
期刊介绍：
Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology is the official journal of The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists. The journal publishes peer-reviewed original research and reviews dealing with all aspects of clinical practice and research which are international in scope and application. CEO recognises the importance of collaborative research and welcomes papers that have a direct influence on ophthalmic practice but are not unique to ophthalmology.
