Although it has demonstrated effectiveness in lowering IOP and slowing glaucoma progression, its applicability to the Taiwanese population, known for a higher incidence of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) cases, requires validation. This retrospective case-control study, conducted from January 2018 to December 2020, aimed to assess the effectiveness of combining first-generation iStent with phacoemulsification (phaco-iStent) compared to phacoemulsification alone in Taiwanese patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and NTG, involving 71 eyes (iStent group: POAG 16 and NTG 8; control group: POAG 28 and NTG 19). The primary outcomes included changes in IOP and the number of antiglaucoma medications, with subgroup analyses for POAG and NTG. Over the 18-month follow-up, the iStent group achieved a significantly greater reduction in antiglaucoma medications compared with the control group (<i>p</i> value = 0.003∼<0.001) without significant IOP rebound. After adjusting for confounding factors, the reduction in the number of antiglaucoma medications with iStent remained significant (<i>β</i> = -0.8, <i>p</i> < 0.001) according to the generalized estimating equation.

Notably, the NTG-iStent subgroup achieved the highest complete success rate (85.7% at 18 months). In conclusion, phaco-iStent emerges as an effective standalone treatment for Taiwanese patients with POAG and NTG, providing substantial IOP reduction and higher success rates, especially in NTG cases.
