Evaluating eye angle after BANG surgery for glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new surgical procedure (BANG) for people with open-angle glaucoma whose eye pressure stays high despite using drops. The goal is to see if the surgery helps open the eye's drainage angle.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have open-angle glaucoma and use eye drops.
- Your eye pressure is higher than 21, even with drops.
- The drainage angle in your eye is open (confirmed by a special exam).
- You have not had cataract surgery or other eye surgeries in the past.
- Your glaucoma is not severe or advanced.
- You are willing and able to consent to surgery and follow-up visits.

This study looks at how your eye's drainage angle changes after glaucoma surgery. It helps doctors understand what happens to the front part of your eye after procedures like laser or surgery to open the drainage area.
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 compares two surgical drainage devices used for glaucoma and looks at how they affect the clear front window of the eye (the cornea). It may help you understand which device is gentler on the cornea over time.
This study uses advanced eye imaging (OCT and OCTA) to understand how the blood vessels and tissue layers in the back of the eye differ between people with glaucoma, people at risk for angle-closure glaucoma, and people with healthy eyes. The findings may help doctors better diagnose and understand these eye conditions.
This trial uses a special ultrasound to look at the eye after a certain type of glaucoma surgery. It helps doctors see how well the surgery is working for people with open-angle glaucoma.
This study is looking at people with glaucoma or high eye pressure who are about to have glaucoma surgery. The goal is to understand more about their condition and how it responds after stopping their usual eye drops for a short time before surgery.
