Eye fluid and tissue analysis in glaucoma and cataract
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study collects eye fluid and tissue samples during planned cataract or combined cataract-glaucoma surgery to analyze differences between people with and without glaucoma. It may help researchers understand eye disease better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for cataract surgery (lens replacement) with or without a glaucoma procedure.
- You can give written permission to join the study.
- You do not have any other serious eye disease besides cataract (or glaucoma if in the glaucoma group).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have not had eye surgery in the study eye before.

This study combines cataract surgery with a procedure to improve fluid drainage in the eye, which may help lower eye pressure in people with glaucoma. It aims to see if this combined approach is safe and effective for both open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma.
This study compares two types of artificial lenses (IOLs) used during cataract surgery for people with mild to moderate glaucoma. It aims to see which lens provides better vision and patient satisfaction.
This trial looks at whether placing a small glaucoma implant at the same time as cataract surgery can better control eye pressure in people with primary open-angle glaucoma. It may help reduce the need for medicines or improve control, depending on how your eyes respond.
This study compares two different devices used during cataract surgery to lower eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. It aims to see which device works better and is safer.
This study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
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.
