Xen 45 Gel Stent positioned in the sub-Tenon’s space: a & b show rare filtrating micro-cysts at corneo-conjunctival junction surrounded by a dense hyper-reflective tissue. Goblet cells are more rarefactioned, reflective and not well distinguishable; c shows the cross-sectional image of the stent (black arrow); d shows irregular epithelial mosaic with rarefaction of basal cells and poor filtration. e & f clearly indicate a laminar sub-tenonian and intra-scleral filtration and the forced aqueous humor separating the connective lamellae
