Abstract A 79-year-old female with uncontrolled open-angle glaucoma underwent a Preserflo® microshunt procedure. Post-surgery, the shunt made contact with the conjunctiva, requiring additional sutures. The shunt later became exposed, necessitating a re-operation to cover the shunt and reposition the conjunctiva especially mobilizing Tenon's capsule from the posterior aspect of the eye. No recurrence of exposure was observed in follow-ups. This case highlights the potential for postoperative exposure with the Preserflo® microshunt procedure, emphasizing the importance of covering the Tenon's capsule, especially in elderly patients.
