One year after Preser Flow Micro Shunt (PFM) surgery, endothelial cell density(ECD) was measured at three locations the central cornea, the cornea proximal to the PFM, and the cornea distal to the PFM on the same day. Factors associated with endothelial cell loss (ECL) were then examined.
Safety
The primary outcome measure was the change in endothelial cell density (ECD). ECD was measured preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively using a specular microscope at three locations: the central cornea, the cornea proximal to the PFM, and the cornea distal to the PFM. The auto-center method was used for measurement (Supplemental figure 1). Preoperatively, only the central cornea was assessed, whereas at 12 months postoperatively, measurements were taken at the central cornea, PFM-proximal cornea, and PFM-distal cornea.
As a secondary outcome measure, the insertion position of the PFM was evaluated using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) at 12 months postoperatively. Based on the report by Tan et al., 23 three parameters were analyzed: the insertion angle between the cornea and the center of the tube (TA; Tube Angle), the distance between the cornea and the center of the tube (DT; Distance Tube), and the tube length inside the anterior chamber (TL; Tube Length).

The ECD was measured at the central cornea, the cornea near the PFM, and the cornea distal to the PFM. One year after PFM surgery, it was found that in many cases, the endothelial cell count near the PFM had decreased, and the effects gradually extended to the central cornea.
