E. Randy Craven, MD, demonstrates the CyPass Micro-stent (Transcend Medical) placement procedure immediately following cataract surgery. After successful phacoemulsification and posterior chamber IOL insertion, the iris is dilated and OVD instilled to deepen the chamber. Under the guidance of a gonioscopy lens, the surgeon advances the CyPass stent through the clear cornea incision towards the angle. Dr. Craven gently inserts the stent tube between the sclera and the ciliary body.

The CyPass Micro-Stent is an investigational device and is limited by United States law to investigational use.
