  Purpose: To compare the clinical efficacy and safety outcomes in patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) who underwent PreserFlo microshunt implantation and XEN-45 gel stent implantation at a single center. Materials and methods: This is a monocentric retrospective study on patients with POAG treated with XEN-45 gel stent implantation or PreserFlo minishunt implantation at our centre in Florence. We included 31 eyes in 24 patients with XEN-45 and 26 eyes treated with twenty-six eyes in 25 patients with PreserFlo microshunt. All patients underwent a complete preoperative assessment, which included Intraocular Pressure (IOP) measurement with Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT). Follow-up lasted for 12 months.
