Popis:	AIMS: To assess the efficacy of Xen in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) in varying glaucoma subtypes. To assess the effect of combined phacoemulsification. To determine the frequency of complications and explore further bleb management needed. METHODS: Retrospective case note review of all patients undergoing Xen implantation across four centres from August 2015 to May 2017. RESULTS: In total, 259 consecutive surgeries of 226 patients were reviewed. IOP reduced from 19.3 (SD ± 6.0) mmHg preoperatively to 14.2 (SD ± 4.4) at month 12 and 13.5 (SD ± 3.3) at month 18 (p
