Magnetically actuated glaucoma drainage device for regulating intraocular pressure after implantation

Abstract The key risk factor for glaucoma is increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Glaucoma drainage devices implanted in the eye can reduce IOP and thus stop disease progression. However, most devices currently used in clinical practice are passive and do not allow for postsurgical IOP control, whi...
