BAERVELDT® glaucoma implants have a unique design that combines a large surface area in a streamlined device that can be implanted in a single quadrant. The clinical benefits of a large, single-quadrant implant are significant. More surface area may provide:
- More effective long-term intraocular pressure (IOP) control than smaller plates3,4
- An increased capacity to drain aqueous and relieve pressure than smaller plates4
- Potentially fewer postoperative, antiglaucoma medications3,4
Compared to multiquadrant implants, the use of single-quadrant BAERVELDT® glaucoma implants may provide:
- Easier implantation3
- Less trauma to periocular tissue2,4
- Minimized inflammation and further improved control of IOP4
