Glaucoma implant study halted early – but shows promise for pressure control

NCT ID NCT04770324

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study tested a new implant (Supraflow) placed in the eye to help drain fluid and lower pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma. The goal was to see if two implants could safely reduce eye pressure enough to replace or reduce the need for daily eye drops. The study was stopped early, but it included 22 adults aged 50 and older whose glaucoma medications were no longer working well enough.
