A Comparison of Two Ab Interno Procedures in the Treatment of Glaucoma in Patients Undergoing Cataract Extraction

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Open Angle Glaucoma
Interventions
Procedure: Goniotomy
Device: Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent
Procedure: Cataract Extraction
Registration Number
NCT02784249
Lead Sponsor
New World Medical, Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of goniotomy performed with a novel ophthalmic knife compared to trabecular bypass stent implantation in mild to moderate glaucoma subjects who are also undergoing cataract extraction with phacoemulsification (Phaco) and posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) implant.
