MIGS procedures use microscopic-sized equipment and tiny incisions. While they reduce the incidence of complications, some degree of effectiveness is also traded for the increased safety. Nevertheless, current MIGS devices serve an unfilled niche given the alternative traditional treatments:
Since bleb-forming MIGS involves placing a permanent implant into the eye, it circumvents the major issue plaguing glaucoma medication, which is patient non-compliance, and provides a safe, effective therapy for preventing permanent vision loss in refractory glaucoma patients.
Les chirurgie micro-invasives du glaucome (CMIG) sont réalisées à l’aide d’équipements de taille microscopique. Les dispositifs MIGS actuels offrent une solution de rechange aux traitements traditionnels :
Puisque les CMIG consistent à installer un implant permanent dans l’œil, elles permettent de remédier au principal problème lié à la prise de médicaments contre le glaucome, soit le manque de conformité chez les patients. Les CMIG constituent une thérapie sécuritaire et efficace pour prévenir la perte de vision permanente chez les patients atteints de glaucome réfractaire.
