Adult patients with POAG who underwent MIGS were identified, with one group having comorbid DR and the other without. Propensity score matching was applied, yielding 518 patients per group for analysis. Complications assessed included vision loss, hypotony, ocular hypertension, cataract formation, eye infection, and any ocular hemorrhage. The primary outcomes were post-procedure complication rates and their statistical significance.
