The development of a micro‐shunt made from poly(styrene‐block‐isobutylene‐block‐styrene) to treat glaucoma
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness with ∼70 million people worldwide who are blind from this disease. The currently practiced trabeculectomy surgery, the gold standard treatment used to stop the progression of vision loss, is rather draconian, traumatic to the patient and requires muc...
