Penetrating Trabeculectomy Glaucoma Drainage Implant 3.5mm

Implantable Glaucoma Devices for Penetrating Trabeculectory

Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy that is the second leading cause of preventable blindness worldwide, after cataract formation. A rise in the intraocular pressure (IOP) is considered to be a major risk factor for glaucoma and is associated with an abnormal increase of resistance to aqueous humour outflow from the anterior chamber. Implantable Glaucoma Devices have been developed to provide an alternative pathway through which aqueous humour can effectively exit the anterior chamber, thereby reducing IOP.

Implantable Glaucoma Devices for Penetrating Trabeculectomy Material

Glaucoma Value Model FPT for Glaucoma Surgery is produced biomaterial ethoxyl methacrylate ester/methyl methacrylate copolymer(2-HEMA-co-NMA) which is nontoxic, has no immune response, has good biological compatibility, and cannot be absorbed by tissue. As materials of intraocular lens, it has been clinically applied in ophthalmology for more than ten years, and is universally accepted as good intraocular implantation material by ophthalmology circle.

Implantable Glaucoma Devices for Penetrating Trabeculectomy Material Structure and Working Mechanism

Glaucoma Valve Model FPT for Glaucoma Surgery has four holes. Used for fixation on sclerotic bed and osmosis of aqueous humor, implant the Glaucoma Valve Model FPT for Glaucoma Surgery into resected deep sclerotic bed to form acavity which is called aqueous humor pond or depressurizing room, the upper bottom of linguiform one is exposed to the outside of sclerotic valve, that is made for aqueous humor being drained from the pond, cavity to the underside of conjunctiva, and promoting the formation of new aqueous humor channel, and thus to acheive the goal of reducing intraocular pressure.
