Comparing glaucoma stents with or without amniotic membrane
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests two small drainage devices (PreserFlo and XEN stents) for glaucoma, sometimes with an amniotic membrane. The goal is to see which approach is safer and more effective at lowering eye pressure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You are already planning to have PreserFlo microshunt or XEN stent surgery, possibly with cataract surgery.
- You must understand what the study involves and be able to follow instructions.
- You cannot be pregnant or nursing.
- You cannot have had certain past eye surgeries like trabeculectomy or tube-shunt implants.

This trial compares three types of tissue grafts (sclera, pericardium, and cornea) used during certain glaucoma surgeries. It aims to find which graft works best to help control eye pressure.
This trial compares two types of glaucoma drainage devices (Baerveldt and Paul) in people whose glaucoma is not well controlled with eye drops. It aims to find which device works better at lowering eye pressure and is safer.
This study compares a glaucoma drainage device approach to see which one better prevents loss of corneal cells after surgery. You may benefit by receiving close monitoring around the time of glaucoma surgery and helping doctors improve surgical choices.
This trial tests a tiny implant called Preserflo to treat glaucoma (high eye pressure) that hasn't been controlled with eyedrops. The surgery aims to lower pressure safely while avoiding complications like pressure that drops too low.
This study compares two different devices (MINIject® and Hydrus® Microstent) used in microinvasive glaucoma surgery, both done at the same time as cataract surgery. It aims to find which one works better at lowering eye pressure.
This study compares two procedures done during cataract surgery: placing a tiny stent (Hydrus Microstent) or performing a goniotomy (a small cut in the eye's drainage tissue). Both aim to lower eye pressure in people with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma.
