An inlet tube cover for a glaucoma shunt is provided. The glaucoma shunt may include an elongate inlet tube having a lumen, a first end, and a second end. The first end of the elongate tube is inserted into the eye to place the lumen in contact with aqueous humor and a reservoir which is attached to the second end of the inlet tube. The reservoir body may have a valve which is in fluid communication with the inlet tube lumen and which opens at a predetermined pressure to allow flow through the lumen of the inlet tube. The reservoir body is attached to the eye. The inlet tube cover is formed from a flexible polymer and includes a channel formed along a length thereof on a bottom surface thereof. The cover is attached to the eye with the inlet tube disposed in the channel so that the cover protects the inlet tube and assists in securing the inlet tube to the eye.
