Summary

This study tests a small device called MINIject that is placed in the eye to help drain fluid and lower pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. About 975 adults who have already had cataract surgery will receive the implant and be followed for two years. The goal is to see if the implant safely reduces eye pressure enough to control the disease and possibly reduce the need for daily eye drops.
