Who is a good candidate for this combined MIGS and cataract surgery?
Ideal candidates are patients with mild-to-moderate primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) who also have visually significant cataracts. This procedure is best suited for those whose glaucoma is not well-controlled with medications alone or who wish to reduce their dependence on eye drops. Contraindications include advanced glaucoma with severe visual field loss, narrow-angle glaucoma, or previous eye surgeries that have compromised the drainage angle. A thorough preoperative evaluation by an ophthalmologist is essential to confirm suitability.
