bIOP and IOP reduction data, at one and two years, were obtained from the randomized clinical trial (RCT) conducted by Samuelson et al 2019 [16] and adjusted for the time-to-discontinuation. Baseline IOP: 24.8 ± 3.3 mmHg vs. 24.5 ± 3.1 mmHg in the iStent + Cataract surgery vs. Cataract surgery groups, respectively (P = 0.33)
