Implantation of two iStents with concomitant cataract surgery is an effective and safe treatment option for surgery-naïve POAG eyes, evidenced by significant IOP and medication reductions, reasonable surgical success, and favorable safety outcomes, throughout the 8-year follow-up. Our data additionally supports the efficacy of this combined procedure in stabilizing or slowing disease progression.
