Glaucoma affects millions of people worldwide and is the second leading cause of blindness. Major advances in
innovative surgical techniques, collectively termed minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), have revolutionized the
field. These groundbreaking ophthalmic surgery approaches are effective, are not bleb-dependent, and they result in
fewer complications.
Authored by a Who's Who of prominent experts in the MIGS movement, this book represents the most comprehensive book
written to date on the subject. Leading glaucoma surgeons offer unique perspectives and experience gleaned from
developing and mastering these state-of-the-art techniques.
The first four sections discuss fundamental concepts of eye anatomy and structure, outflow implications, and aqueous
production. The remaining sections cover the latest cutting-edge procedures elucidated through text descriptions and
case studies, with the final two chapters offering insights into how to best incorporate MIGS into your practice and
possibilities for combining MIGS procedures to expand the treatment algorithm for patients with more moderate to
advanced disease.
Meticulous, step-by-step drawings, photos, and surgical videos further delineate advanced MIGS techniques. Select
