Summary

This study compares two small implants (XEN-63 and PRESERFLO) placed during a quick surgery to lower eye pressure in adults with open-angle glaucoma. About 166 participants will be randomly assigned to one implant and followed for 2 years. The goal is to see if PRESERFLO works as well as XEN-63 at reducing pressure and the need for eye drops.
