Learning Curve and One-Year Outcome of XEN 45 Gel Stent Implantation in a Swedish Population.

XEN-stent surgery is a surgical option in uncontrolled glaucoma in both POAG and PEXG. A XEN-stent can reduce both IOP and the number of antiglaucoma medications needed. The learning curve is significant and stent positioning is crucial for optimal results. Combined XEN-cataract surgery is not inferior to stand-alone procedures. The long-time effectiveness is still to be proven.
