New eye implant aims to ease glaucoma pressure without daily drops
NCT ID NCT05885022
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a device called the Calibreye System, a small implant placed in the eye to help drain fluid and lower pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. Researchers will check if it is safe and works well over 12 months in 60 adults. The goal is to see if the device can reduce eye pressure and possibly cut down on the number of glaucoma medications needed.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Calibreye System (glaucoma implant device)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could offer a new way to lower eye pressure and reduce the need for daily eye drops in people with open-angle glaucoma.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early feasibility study with only 60 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The device may not lower pressure enough or could cause side effects like infection or implant failure.
