Testing a glaucoma procedure called canaloplasty device
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a canaloplasty device is safe and effective for people with open-angle glaucoma who are planning cataract surgery. It may help lower eye pressure when using eye drops is being reduced or stopped.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are eligible to have cataract surgery
- You have open-angle glaucoma in at least one eye
- Your eye pressure (not using pressure-lowering drops) is between 22 and 34 mmHg
- You can safely stop (“wash out”) any glaucoma pressure-lowering medications

This study tests how well a specific glaucoma surgery (canaloplasty) works on its own for people with mild to moderate primary open-angle glaucoma. It may help if drops (eye medicines) do not work well for you or you need fewer eye drops.
This trial tests a surgery that combines cataract removal with a new technique to lower eye pressure in people who have both primary open-angle glaucoma and cataracts. It aims to see if this combined surgery is safe and effective.
This study tests a newer surgical procedure called bio-reinforced canaloplasty, which helps fluid drain better from the eye to lower eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. Researchers will follow patients to see how well this procedure works and how safe it is.
This trial tests a surgical system for people with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma. It may be an option if you are having cataract surgery or have already had it, and your eye pressure is not well controlled with medications.
This trial compares standard cataract surgery alone versus cataract surgery plus a procedure to improve fluid drainage in the eye. It is intended for people with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma, to see if adding this step helps control eye pressure and preserve vision.
This trial tests whether a special cannula can help protect the eye during combined surgery for pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (a type of glaucoma with flaky deposits) and cataracts. It may offer better results than standard irrigation.
