Key Features of AADI:


Large surface Area:


  • Large surface area of the silicone plate provides aqueous filtration and pressure relief by controlling long term intraocular pressure with fewer post operative complication and medication needed than small plate design.

 


Single Quadrant Insertion:


  • Innovative design for simple and faster surgical technique which allows surgeons to implant larger surface plate with lesser trauma and faster healing.


Flexibility:


  • Flexible tie-off capability in the silicone tube, which can be tight or loose to match complicated procedure.


Unique Design:


  • Unique fenestration design allow the growth of fibrous tissue to control bleb height and volumes, to secure plate in the place and minimize ocular motility disturbance.
