Registration Number

Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

Purpose: Characterize changes in intraocular pressure (IOP), IOP-lowering medications, and visual acuity (VA) through 3 years in patients undergoing combined phacoemulsification and excisional goniotomy with the Kahook Dual Blade (phaco-KDB), with simultaneous goniosynechialysis in cases of angle-closure glaucoma, by a single surgeon (A.H.) in King Fahd Hospital of the University, Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

Methods: Prospective, non-comparative, uncontrolled, non-randomized interventional case series. Consecutive patients with medically-treated glaucoma and visually-significant cataract underwent combined surgery. Subgroup analysis of glaucoma subtypes was performed.
