Abstract

Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) has become a reliable standard of care for the treatment of glaucoma when combined with cataract surgery. This review describes the MIGS procedures currently combined with and without cataract surgery with a focus on visual outcomes based on the literature and the experience of the ASCRS Glaucoma Clinical Committee.
