UCP has been used worldwide to treat more than 10 000 patients
Multiple UCP treatments can help to increase the overall procedure efficacy, up to 85% complete success after multiple treatments, on a complex population
The tolerance profile remains globally the same after several treatments
Complete success: IOP < 21mmHg
UCP treatment was repeated at 4 months if needed
Population: 40 patients, 35% of POAG, 42% with previous filtering surgery, 65% non POAG, 7.5% angle closure, 20% exfoliative, 30% neovascular, 7.5% other
No phthisis bulbi, induced cataract, or persistent hypotony were recorded in the published clinical studies
Low rate of vision-threatening complications (<2%), generally transient
No major change in BCVA (>1line) in 86% of surgery-naïve patient treated by UCP at 12 months
