Description
Large plate implants, such as BAERVELDT® Implants, facilitate aqueous outflow to help provide IOP control.
- Allows improved aqueous filtration
- Maximizes pressure relief
BAERVELDT® Implants only require single-quadrant insertion, allowing for better IOP control than competing implants.
The BAERVELDT® Implants’ patented bleb control mechanism allows fibrotic tissue growth through the fenestrations in the plate, controlling bleb height and volume.
- Minimizes the likelihood of ocular motility disturbances
- Helps ensure a low profile for better globe fit
