“…However, in the late stage typically 4 to 6 weeks after implantation, the formation of a fibrous capsule can provide an additional flow resistance to stabilize the IOP. 249 The resistance of a capsule in vivo is typically in the range from 3 to 4 mmHg (μL min −1 ) −1 , 144,250 thus the corresponding pressure head can be 7.5 to 10 mmHg, assuming an averaged aqueous rate of 2.5 μL min −1 . Notably, unlike the conventional GDDs, the valveless MIGS devices (e.g., XEN, PRESERFLO, EX-PRESS) are designed with a noticeable flow resistance in the range from 1.73 to 5.36 mmHg (μL min −1 ) −1 with a resultant pressure drop from 4.3 to 13.4 mmHg.…”
