BAERVELDTTM Glaucoma Implants

Easing the Pressure

The BAERVELDTTM BG 103-250, BAERVELDTTM BG 101-350 and BAERVELDTTM Pars Plana BG 102-350 Glaucoma Implants

Provide pressure control with a minimally invasive BAERVELDTTM Glaucoma Implant. Its fenestration system is designed to control bleb height and volume while a patented larger surface area enhances IOP control.1,2 When traditional glaucoma therapy can’t help the rising IOP, provide control with a BAERVELDTTM Glaucoma Implant.

Large plate implants, such as BAERVELDTTM Implants, facilitate aqueous outflow to help provide IOP control.3

  • Allows improved aqueous filtration
  • Increases pressure relief

BAERVELDTTM Implants only require single-quadrant insertion, allowing for better IOP control than competing implants.4,5

The BAERVELDTTM Implants’ patented bleb control mechanism allows fibrotic tissue growth through the fenestrations in the plate, controlling bleb height and volume.2,6

  • Reduces the likelihood of ocular motility disturbances5
  • Helps ensure a low profile for better globe fit
