Business profile

Glaukos Corporation develops and sells medical devices and pharmaceutical therapies for eye diseases. Its products are used by ophthalmologists and other eye care professionals, and its primary customers include surgery centers, hospitals and physician practices. The company is headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California, and Thomas W. Burns is its chairman and chief executive officer.

For glaucoma, a disease that can damage the optic nerve and cause vision loss, Glaukos sells the iStent family of small implants. These devices are designed to lower pressure in the eye by improving the drainage of fluid. Some are placed during cataract surgery; iStent infinite can also be used as a standalone procedure for patients whose glaucoma remains uncontrolled after earlier treatment.

2025 12.03m 9.99m 150.03
2024 9.03m 25.16m 199.23
2023 8.65m 22.35m 105.62

Directors and executive officers, together 5.90%
BlackRock, Inc. 13.90%
The Vanguard Group 8.90%
Primecap Management Co. 5.80%
Janus Henderson Group PLC 5.20%
Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards at its end, as the SEC’s pay-versus-performance rule asks. $100 invested is what $100 in the company’s shares at the start of the earliest year shown was worth at each year’s end. Ownership is the proxy’s own table: the directors and officers as a group, and every holder of 5% or more. Read the proxy statement
