New eye implant could replace daily glaucoma drops
NCT ID NCT07495852
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 trial tests a second-generation implant placed inside the eye that slowly releases travoprost, a drug that lowers eye pressure. The study will enroll 510 adults with open-angle glaucoma or high eye pressure. The goal is to see if the implant is safe and effective at controlling eye pressure over time, potentially reducing the need for daily eye drops.
