With a revolution in the surgical management of mild to moderate
glaucoma, new procedures allow for the use of microinvasive
techniques that avoid disruption of the conjunctiva and formation
of a bleb. These approaches range from laser therapies targeting
the outflow system of the eye to the implantation of miniature
devices in Schlemm's canal or the suprachoroidal space. The
emergence of this new branch of glaucoma surgery, often coupled
with micro-incisional cataract surgery, requires the practicing
surgeon to learn about anatomical nuances to ensure success. MIGS:
Advances in Glaucoma Surgery will aid the novice resident as well
as the seasoned ophthalmic surgeon facing these new issues in
glaucoma treatment. The book addresses preoperative patient
selection advice, intraoperative pearls for success, and post
operative management skills, which are some of the important
aspects of the process towards the adoption of MIGS. Why you will
