Abstract
PURPOSE: To report on a case of angle-closure glaucoma secondary to iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome effectively managed with the PreserFlo Microshunt. OBSERVATIONS: We report successful implantation of a PreserFlo Microshunt in a 57-year-old patient with secondary angle-closure glaucoma in the context of ICE syndrome. Following failure of medical therapy to adequately control intraocular pressure (IOP), the patient was consented for surgical intervention and underwent combined cataract surgery and PreserFlo Microshunt implantation. IOP at the last post-operative follow-up (5 months) was 12 mmHg with the patient on brinzolamide/timolol maleate (Azarga®). We report no complications in the post-operative period. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: The PreserFlo Microshunt may be a promising option for patients with ICE syndrome who fail medical therapy. Implantation of this device was well tolerated in the presented case.
