Effect of Novel Design Modifications on Fibrotic Encapsulation: An In Vivo Glaucoma Drainage Device Study in a Rabbit Model

PURPOSE: To quantify the effects of modified Ahmed glaucoma valves(®) (AGV) with anti-fibrotic plate coatings or a plate surface micro-pattern on outflow resistance and tissue response. METHODS: Twelve New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups: commercially available AGV implants (n = 3), AG...
