Since approval of the gel stent in multiple countries, the implantation technique has evolved considerably, being performed ab interno or ab externo with open or closed conjunctiva, based on patients’ needs and/or surgeons’ preferences. Additional technical variations that can facilitate gel stent placement and/or improve outcomes have also emerged. This article aims to increase awareness of these developments to facilitate informed decision-making and improve surgical success and outcomes for patients.Keywords: ab interno, ab externo, glaucoma, intraocular pressure, surgical outcomes, XEN |
