IOP measurements in rabbits following implantation of PCS and CPS. IOP was measured in both the operated and the healthy, non-operated, contralateral control eyes of rabbits receiving either an open-lumen PCS or CPS. (A) Eyes containing PCS demonstrated significant reduction in IOP in comparison to contralateral control eyes (p < 0.0001) and lowered IOP in accordance with inner core degradation without causing hypotony. (B) Eyes containing CPS demonstrated hypotony at post-operative day 1, and had significantly lower IOP in comparison to non-operated eyes and eyes with PCS. Difference in number of * indicates statistical significance at p < 0.01.
