Influence of High Myopia on Outcomes of iStent Inject W Implantation Combined with Cataract Surgery up to 24 Months of Follow-Up.

ABSTRACT: Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 2-year postoperative outcomes of iStent inject W implantation combined with phacoemulsification, with a specific focus on comparing results between high myopia (HM) and non-high myopia (non-HM) eyes. Methods: In this retrospective study, subjects were divided into HM and non-HM groups using an axial length cut-off of 26.0 mm. The main outcome measures were intraocular pressure (IOP), number of glaucoma medications, surgical success rates, and postoperative complications. Surgical success was defined as a decrease in glaucoma medical therapy of ≥1 medication without an increase in IOP, or a postoperative IOP ≤ 21 mmHg with a ≥20% reduction. Changes from baseline were analyzed up to 24 months postoperatively. Results<
