Welcome to XEN® Gel Stent. XEN® is an established treatment option for refractory glaucoma and an outpatient procedure.

The XEN ® Gel Stent creates a small channel in the eye to drain fluid and help lower eye pressure. The XEN ® Gel Stent is tiny—about the length of an eyelash—and it’s placed just under the conjunctiva, which is a clear membrane that covers the white of your eye.

The XEN ® Gel Stent is indicated for the treatment of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) where previous medical treatment failed and for patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PXG) or pigmentary glaucoma (PDG) that cannot be controlled with …

The Xen gel implant is a microstent that can lowers IOP via subconjunctival drainage without the tissue disruption of a trabeculectomy or traditional glaucoma drainage implant.

The XEN gel stent procedure is a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery where a small, flexible tube (the stent) is inserted into the eye to create a new drainage pathway, reducing eye pressure and potentially preserving vision.

Trabeculectomy is still considered the gold standard, but the surgical management of glaucoma has undergone continuous advances in recent years, XEN-gel-stent has been introduced as a safer and less traumatic means of lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG).

The XEN ® Glaucoma Treatment System (XEN ® 45 Gel Stent preloaded into a XEN ® Injector) is indicated for the management of refractory glaucomas, including cases where previous surgical treatment has failed, cases of primary open-angle glaucoma, and pseudoexfoliative or pigmentary glaucoma with open angles that are unresponsive to maximum ...

The XEN® Gel Stent is a small surgical implant designed for use in minimally invasive glaucoma surgery. The procedure helps drain fluid and reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) in open angle glaucoma patients, thus preserving vision.
