an-GlauDrain
A non-valved drainage device for refractory glaucoma cases
The an-GlauDrain is specifically designed for the use in veterinary ophthalmology, with a soft base plate and being flexible enough to adjust to the different globe sizes (radiuses).
As the an-GlauDrain is foldable, it allows a comfortable placement in the subconjunctival pocket. The base is made of a hydrophobic and highly bio-compatible acrylate, and the connected tube is made of silicone, certified for long-term implantation. This innovative design allows the aqueous humor to percolate out of the eye underneath the conjunctiva which lowers the intraocular pressure.
