Combined cataract and glaucoma surgery for new patients
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests a single surgery to treat both glaucoma and cataracts at the same time. It is for people who have not had any prior glaucoma treatment and need cataract surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have primary open-angle glaucoma and a cataract that affects your vision.
- You have never taken glaucoma drops, had laser, or surgery for glaucoma.
- You are between 40 and 85 years old.
- Your vision in the study eye is at least 20/200 with glasses (best corrected).
- You do not have other serious eye diseases or advanced vision loss.

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 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 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 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 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.
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.
