Rescue of Failed XEN-45 Gel Implant by Nd:YAG Shock Wave to Anterior Chamber Tip to Dislodge Hidden Intraluminal Occlusion

Conclusion: Nd:YAG laser revision of hidden blockage of a XEN-45 gel implant with periluminal anterior chamber tip shockwave treatment can disperse invisible intraluminal cellular debris and improve flow in a failing XEN-45 microstent, especially when distal fibrosis is not excessive.
