Ophthalmic endoscopes are provided that overcome deficiencies associated with current approaches to implanting ophthalmic stents and shunts for treatment of glaucoma. In various aspects, ophthalmic endoscopes are provided having an elongated body, an instrument port, a micro fiber-optic camera, and in some aspects an irrigation port, wherein the irrigation port extends at least the length of the elongated body from the proximal end to the distal end. The use of the fiber-optic camera and the angle of the irrigation port can allow the device to be operated with a single hand and to overcome the difficult positioning associated with conventional implantation procedures. Ophthalmic endoscopy systems are also provided including the endoscope and a video processor. Methods of implanting an ophthalmic implant using the ophthalmic endoscopes and endoscopy systems are also provided.
