New Laser-Like device aims to ease glaucoma without drops
NCT ID NCT05999006
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a device called the ELIOS System to safely lower eye pressure in adults with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma. The procedure is done alone, without other surgeries, and aims to reduce pressure by at least 20% while possibly using fewer medications. Researchers are checking how well it works and if it is safe for patients.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
ELIOS System (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new, less invasive procedure to control eye pressure in glaucoma patients, potentially reducing reliance on daily eye drops.
What could go wrong
This is an early feasibility study with only 22 participants, so results may not apply to all glaucoma patients. The procedure may not lower pressure enough or could have unexpected side effects.
