This study tested a small device called the Hydrus Microstent in 217 adults with open-angle glaucoma that was not well controlled with other treatments. The goal was to see if the implant could safely lower eye pressure. After 12 months, many patients had a significant drop in ey…

This study tested two different laser treatment locations for open-angle glaucoma: one targeting the nasal side of the eye and one targeting the inferior side. 13 patients received the laser procedure to see which location better lowers eye pressure. The goal is to find the most …

This completed Phase 2 trial tested two strengths of a new eye drop called T4090 against the existing drug Rhopressa in 161 adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The goal was to see which better lowers eye pressure over 7 weeks. Participants used one drop daily …

This completed Phase 4 trial tested the drug Mexidol in 80 people with advanced primary open-angle glaucoma. The goal was to see if the drug could improve the function of mitochondria in cells and protect the optic nerve. Participants were randomly assigned to receive Mexidol or …

This study tested different doses of the drug Mexidol in 102 adults with moderate to advanced open-angle glaucoma. The goal was to see if the drug could improve vision compared to a placebo. Participants took the drug or placebo in a sequence over several months, and their vision…

This early-stage study tested a tiny implant placed inside the eye that slowly releases medication to lower eye pressure in people with mild-to-moderate open-angle glaucoma. The goal was to find a dose that works well with few side effects. 37 adults took part, and researchers mo…

This phase 2 trial tested two new eye drop formulas, AR-17043 and PG043, in 426 people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The goal was to see if they safely lower eye pressure better than existing drops. Participants received different doses of the study drops or st…

This study looked at 100 adults with normal tension glaucoma who were already using the eye drop latanoprost. Researchers added either netarsudil or brimonidine to see which combination lowered eye pressure more effectively. The goal was to find a better way to control the diseas…
