Safety and efficacy of microinvasive glaucoma surgery with cataract extraction in patients with normal-tension glaucoma

Abstract This study assesses the safety and efficacy of microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) with cataract extraction in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). In our sample of 45 NTG patients, mean intraocular pressure (IOP) decreased from 13.7 to 12.3 mmHg at 2.5 years, and mean medication...
