Values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation unless otherwise indicated (p value). MD = mean deviation; ECD = corneal endothelial cell density; N/A = not applicable. ∗Paired t-test; statistical significance: p < 0.05 vs. preoperative value. †Follow-up period after glaucoma device implantation.
