Scanning Electron Microscopy Evaluation of an EX-PRESS Mini Glaucoma Shunt After Explantation.

abstract：PURPOSE:The mechanism by which the prostaglandin F2alpha-related antiglaucoma compound isopropyl unoprostone (referred to as unoprostone) reduces intraocular pressure is largely unknown. Another prostaglandin F2alpha-related compound, latanoprost, influences the activities of matrix metalloproteinases in ciliary muscle...
