Optometrists are often the first point of contact between patients and ophthalmic surgeons, so it is essential they are well informed about the latest surgery techniques.
The introduction of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) offers patients with mild to moderate glaucoma a safe and effective way to reduce their intraocular pressure (IOP) with potentially fewer medications, especially where cataract surgery is required. With multiple options to choose from, it is important to understand the differences between available devices and the questions to ask to help select the best procedure for an individual patient.
