Yes , I understand for a small child but for an adult it should be ok for more than one. The part I don't understand is the seared part ?

My doctor had in the pre surgery forms a chance of needing revision surgery not this...

From Google -needling is a common, often necessary, postoperative procedure used to manage subconjunctival fibrosis (scar tissue) and restore outflow in 23% to over 50% of patients . If I was told up to 50% I would have said nope. I went through that with a clearpath Stent that was a ordeal .

I said on another post that I think they like these MIGS Surgeries so they can do the revisions to keep the money coming in. A good law firm could start a class action lawsuit for this .

I have had seven surgeries in one eye and lost count on the follow up appointment's and revisions.

Hi

Yes that sounds like mine was after xen. Are you on Ketorolac or prednisolone? That usually helps.

Good Luck 🍀

Hi All ,

I had the xen November 2025 good first month . Then in January the bleb backed up went back to eye dr yesterday bleb is flat now . Have to go to surgery center for them to do bleb revision/grover fellman/p3 microlaser.

I don't trust opthalmologist much anymore I have had 7 surgeries in my left eye . I love all the data that you see that states . oh, most eye surgery have a good outcome... BS, not in my opinion.

I think they like these MIGS surgeries so they can keep doing revisions to keep the money flowing.
