Revolution in Glaucoma Filtering Surgery: PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt
Transforming Glaucoma Treatment with Preserflo MicroShunt
What is PRESERFLO™ MicroShunt?
Advantages of the Preserflo MicroShunt Over Trabeculectomy
- Minimally Invasive: The Preserflo MicroShunt involves a less invasive procedure compared to the traditional trabeculectomy, resulting in fewer complications and faster recovery times.
- Improved Safety: With a lower risk of post-operative infections and other complications, the MicroShunt offers a safer alternative for glaucoma patients.
- Greater Efficacy: Clinical studies have shown that the Preserflo MicroShunt effectively lowers IOP, often with greater consistency than trabeculectomy.
- Patient Comfort: The minimally invasive nature of the MicroShunt means less post-operative discomfort and a quicker return to normal activities.
