NCT ID NCT06952153
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 03, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study compares two surgical methods for people with a type of glaucoma (angle-closure glaucoma) that is not well controlled with eye drops. One group will have cataract removal combined with a procedure to open the eye's drainage angle, while the other group will have a standard filtering surgery. The goal is to see which approach better lowers eye pressure and has fewer side effects. About 82 adults aged 40 and older will take part and be followed for one year.
