Samenvatting

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, the health of which is vital for good vision. The key risk factor for the development and progression of this disease is increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Implantable glaucoma drainage devices have been developed as an alternative means to divert fluid out of the glaucomatous eye to reduce the IOP. However, postoperative IOP is unpredictable and current implants often fail in maintaining it at optimal levels. To have a better control of the IOP, we are developing an innovative magnetically actuated glaucoma implant with a hydrodynamic resistance that can be adjusted following surgery
