description | The Preserflo MicroShunt represents a novel glaucoma treatment device, necessitating long-term follow-up data to accurately assess its efficacy. The aim of this study is to report real-world data of a heterogenous glaucoma cohort who received Preserflo implantation at a specialized glaucoma clinic. A total of 160 eyes of 160 patients who underwent Preserflo MicroShunt implantation were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Patient characteristics, as well as success and failure rates, were assessed. The numbers of adverse events and revision procedures were recorded, along with any reduction in supplementary medication. The progression of intraocular pressure (IOP) was assessed over the course of 12 months, and fluctuations were analyzed. The overall success rate was 61.9% (complete success: 51.3%, qualified success: 10.6%). Revision surgery was performed in 25% of cases. Excessive hypotony occurred postoperatively in 54.4% of patients and regressed after 7 days in 88.8% of all cases. Median IOP decreased from 22 (interquartile range (IQR): 17–27) mmHg preoperatively to 14 (IQR 12–16) mmHg at 12 months postoperatively (p < 0.01). The median number of antiglaucomatous agents decreased from three to zero at latest follow-up. The Preserflo MicroShunt achieved a noticeable reduction in IOP over the course of 12 months in glaucoma patients, irrespective of disease severity or disease subtype. The frequency of postoperative adverse events and number for revision surgeries over the course of the follow-up period were low. |
