About Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)
Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) is a modern procedure designed to lower eye pressure in patients with mild to moderate glaucoma. It enhances the eye’s natural drainage using tiny devices without major incisions. MIGS aims to protect the optic nerve and slow disease progression. It is a 30 minutes procedure and Patient can discharge in same day.
Through a very small incision, the surgeon inserts a micro-stent or performs an internal bypass to help fluid drain more easily. It is often combined with cataract surgery and done under local anesthesia. The procedure is quick, safe, and requires minimal tissue manipulation.
