Comparing two glaucoma surgeries with cataract surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests which of two micro-surgeries for glaucoma works better when you're also having cataract surgery. It may help you if you have both cataracts and glaucoma and take eye drops to control eye pressure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a cataract that is important enough to treat.
- You have glaucoma or high eye pressure, treated with 1 to 4 eye drops.
- You have not had any previous glaucoma surgery or certain laser treatments in the last 90 days.
- The drainage angle of your eye must be open (not blocked) in at least two areas.
- You do not have other serious eye diseases like advanced macular degeneration or diabetic eye problems.

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 compares two devices used during a combined cataract and glaucoma surgery (goniotomy). If you have open-angle glaucoma and are already planning cataract surgery, this trial may help your doctor choose the best tool for you.
This trial compares two types of eye surgery—one that removes the cataract and opens blocked drainage channels, and another that creates a new drainage pathway. It aims to find which works better for people with both glaucoma and cataracts.
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 trial compares two types of lens implants during cataract surgery for people with mild to moderate glaucoma. The goal is to see which lens provides better vision and satisfaction.
This trial studies a new tube-shunt surgery (SCTSC) against the standard trabeculectomy for people with open-angle glaucoma that is not controlled by eye drops. It is only for people who have already had cataract surgery.
