Understanding Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease characterized by damage to the optic nerve, which is responsible for transmitting visual information to the brain. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to irreversible vision loss. It often develops silently and gradually, making regular eye exams crucial for early detection.

MIGS for Glaucoma
MIGS may be combined with cataract surgery or as a standalone surgery. Here’s why patients may choose MIGS.
Safety
MIGS procedures are minimally invasive, utilizing tiny incisions and advanced surgical techniques. This approach reduces the risk of complications and promotes faster recovery.
Efficacy
MIGS procedures have shown promising results in effectively lowering IOP and managing glaucoma. By improving the outflow of fluid in the eye, MIGS can help preserve your vision and slow down the progression of the disease.
Convenience
MIGS can often be combined with other eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery, eliminating the need for separate procedures. This streamlined approach saves you time and allows for comprehensive care in a single visit.
Durysta for Glaucoma
If you’re seeking an advanced treatment option for glaucoma, Durysta may be right for you. Here’s why patients may choose Durysta.
Convenience
With Durysta, you can avoid the hassle of daily eye drops. Its effects typically last 4-6 months (often longer). This convenience allows you to focus on enjoying life without the constant worry of eye drop administration.
Efficacy
Durysta has been clinically proven to effectively lower IOP and manage glaucoma. By continuously delivering meds to the eye, it helps control IOP levels and reduces the risk of disease progression, preserving your vision.
Minimally Invasive
The implant is placed during a simple, in-office procedure. No need to coordinate with a surgery center or hospital. No downtime.
