Testing canaloplasty surgery for mild to moderate glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years old or older
- You have mild to moderate primary open-angle glaucoma
- Your glaucoma doctor says you are a candidate for canaloplasty without other procedures like trabeculotomy
- You cannot tolerate glaucoma eye drops, or you want/need to use fewer drops
- Your eye pressure matches the study numbers (not too low, not too high, and it changes in a specific way when you stop drops)
- Your cornea thickness is within the study range (between about 480 and 620)
- You can understand and sign consent, and you can attend all follow-up visits

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 study tests a new minimally-invasive surgery called MIMS to lower eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma that isn't well controlled even with multiple eye drop medications. The surgery makes a tiny opening to help fluid drain and reduce pressure in the eye.
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.
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 is checking how well a combined eye surgery (Hydrus microstent plus canaloplasty plus cataract surgery) works over 3 years. It looks at long-term safety and effect on eye pressure. It's for people with open-angle glaucoma who already had that specific combination of procedures.
