A novel flexible microfluidic meshwork to reduce fibrosis in glaucoma surgery.
PURPOSE/RELEVANCE:Fibrosis and hence capsule formation around the glaucoma implants are the main reasons for glaucoma implant failure. To address these issues, we designed a microfluidic meshwork and tested its biocompatibility in a rabbit eye model. The amount of fibrosis elicited by the microfluid...
