A device implantable into the eye is provided that includes an elongate duct portion having a longitudinal axis. The duct portion defines at least one lumen that extends from a distal end to a neck spaced longitudinally from the distal end. The device further includes a second portion that includes two tubular segments that extend or flare outwardly from the neck opposite one another relative to the longitudinal axis. The second portion includes at least one outlet in fluid communication the at least one lumen of the duct portion to permit fluid to flow through the device. In embodiments, the first duct portion and the second portion are formed together as a unitary structure. The two tubular segments of the second portion can extend or flare outwardly from the neck opposite one another relative to the longitudinal axis in a Y configuration. The second portion can further include at least one additional tubular segment that extends between the two tubular segments such that the tubular segments of the second portion to form a loop that surrounds an interior area. Other implantable devices, systems, methods of treatment, and methods of manufacture are also described and claimed.
