The PAUL Glaucoma Implant in paediatric patients: a comprehensive analysis
Pages 63–77
Abstract
The PAUL® Glaucoma Implant constitutes a notable advancement in glaucoma drainage devices, offering a sophisticated design and an enhanced safety profile tailored explicitly for paediatric patients. Its diminutive tube size, improved plate design, and regulated outflow mechanism effectively address numerous challenges associated with traditional implants, rendering it a compelling option for children necessitating long-term intraocular pressure control. While preliminary clinical outcomes are encouraging, further research is imperative to ascertain the long-term efficacy and optimal integration within paediatric glaucoma surgical protocols.
