New filtration procedure for moderate to severe glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new procedure called AquaLumen that aims to lower eye pressure in people with moderate to severe open-angle glaucoma. It might offer a new way to manage glaucoma and protect your vision.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have moderate or severe open-angle glaucoma.
- Your corneal thickness (the clear front of your eye) must be between 480 and 610 microns.
- You must not have had a corneal transplant (graft) in the past.
- You must not have clouding or scarring of the cornea.
- You must not have had a failed trabeculectomy (a previous glaucoma surgery).

This study tests a new surgery that combines cataract removal with a glaucoma procedure to lower eye pressure in people with primary open-angle glaucoma. It's for people whose eye pressure is controlled with 1 to 4 medications but who also have significant cataracts.
This study compares a new way of doing laser treatment for open-angle glaucoma versus the standard method. The goal is to see which approach works better at lowering eye pressure and protecting vision.
This study tests a new tube-based surgery to lower eye pressure in people with advanced or difficult-to-treat open-angle glaucoma. The goal is to see if this surgery works better than standard care for controlling pressure and preserving vision.
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 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 tests a new suture method during glaucoma surgery with the Preserflo device to reduce the risk of low eye pressure after the operation. It may help people with certain types of glaucoma who need surgery because their eye pressure is not controlled by medications.
