Laser combined with cataract and glaucoma surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new laser device (ELIOS) during combined cataract and glaucoma surgery. It may help people who need both cataract removal and glaucoma treatment, aiming to lower eye pressure safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and willing to participate.
- You have a cataract that needs surgery.
- You have open-angle glaucoma (including pigmentary or pseudoexfoliative types), but not angle-closure or normal-tension glaucoma.
- Your eye pressure is not too high (≤35 mmHg) and your cornea is not too thin or too thick.
- You have not had any eye surgery before in the area being treated.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a laser treatment helps keep eye pressure stable in people with early glaucoma or high eye pressure who have not used any eye drops or medications before. It may be a good option if you are looking for a treatment that doesn't require daily eye drops.
This trial tests how well a laser treatment called selective laser trabeculoplasty works in people with open-angle glaucoma. It looks at results over 12 months to see if it helps lower eye pressure.
This trial tests a newer, gentler cataract surgery method in people who have both glaucoma and cataracts. It aims to lower eye pressure safely during the procedure.
This study tests a handheld laser device used during cataract surgery to create a precise opening in the lens capsule. It may help surgeons improve accuracy and safety during the procedure.
This study tests a new laser treatment (ELIOS) for people with open-angle glaucoma who also need cataract surgery. It aims to see if the laser is safe and effective at lowering eye pressure while removing the cataract.
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.
