Four-Year Outcome of XEN 45 Gel Stent Implantation in a Swedish Population.

The overall success rate of XEN 45 gel stent surgery in the present cohort is relatively low in a long-time follow-up under the given circumstances if all initial patients are included to follow-up. The influence of the surgeon's learning curve is obvious, and improvement in success can be expected when used by experienced and high-volume surgeons. No significant differences were found in PEXG compared to POAG or in XEN surgery combined with cataract surgery compared to stand-alone.
