AquaLumen procedure for open-angle glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new procedure called AquaLumen that helps drain fluid from the eye to lower eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. It's designed for those with moderate to severe glaucoma who haven't had certain eye surgeries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have moderate to severe open-angle glaucoma (a type of glaucoma where fluid doesn't drain well from your eye)
- Your cornea (the clear, front part of your eye) is between 480 and 610 microns thick
- You have not had a cornea transplant
- You do not have any scarring or cloudiness in the cornea
- You have not had a failed trabeculectomy (a previous glaucoma surgery that didn't work)

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 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 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 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 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 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.
