Complication of micro-bypass stenting: the anterior chamber displacement of a Xen implant

Complicação de stent micro-bypass: o deslocamento da câmara anterior de um implante de Xen

ABSTRACT

Although minimally invasive glaucoma surgery using different types of implants is a promising strategy for treating glaucoma, potential long-term complications require further evaluation. Here, we report a case of the anterior chamber displacement of a Xen implant due to a maneuver aimed at correcting a dysfunctional and bent subconjunctival implant.
