Introduction: To assess the recommendations of open angle glaucoma Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) addressing Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) or MIGS procedures CPG. Methods: A scoping review of CPG was conducted, based on an ongoing systematic review (CRD42024510656). A systematic literature search of CPG was carried out in November 2023, with an update in January 2024. CPG published in the last 8 years, full text available and addressing MIGS were selected. CPG details and recommendations concerning MIGS were extracted. Results: 13 CPG addressing MIGS were selected (8 recovered from databases and 5 from registers). Four health Technology Assessments were assessed but recommendations were not considered. Finnish and Swedish guidelines, published in 2024, and Japanese guidelines, published in 2023, are English versions of their native language guidelines, but none of them make specific recommendations about MIGS. The Spanish Glaucoma Society – Advanced Glaucoma guideline (2023) describes the available techniques but does not make recommendations about MIGS. The European Glaucoma Society (2023) guideline only makes recommendations for 4 devices and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence Interventional procedures guidance makes recommendations both for specific procedures and devices. Conclusion: MIGS is a relevant topic that has not been adequately addressed in terms of updated evidence, available procedures, and recommendations in open angle glaucoma CPG or MIGS procedures CPG.
