Glaukos has established a direct sales organization and launched the iStent inject trabecular micro-bypass stent in Australia, according to a press release.

The iStent inject was approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration. It is to be used with cataract surgery to reduce IOP in patients with mild to moderate glaucoma who are being treated with ocular hypotensive medication.

“Our investment in Australia demonstrates our continued commitment to expand our direct sales operations in targeted markets and increase the global reach of our breakthrough iStent technology platform,” Thomas Burns, president and CEO of Glaukos, said in the release.
