New World Medical has introduced a new, valveless glaucoma drainage device, the Ahmed ClearPath, that simplifies tube shunt procedures for surgeons and offers another treatment option for patients seeking treatment. We are proud to report that Newsom Eye’s own Dr. Vinita Srivastava was the first glaucoma surgeon in the Tampa area to implant the Ahmed ClearPath Valve.
Dr. Srivastava is trained in surgical and medical glaucoma, with expertise in trabeculectomies with and without ExPress Shunts, Ahmed/Baerveldt Tube Shunts and Bleb Revisions. As a glaucoma research investigator, she was the ideal surgeon to premiere the Ahmed ClearPath Valve.
