Comparing Effectiveness of the Hydrus Microstent (TM) to Two iStents to Lower IOP in Phakic Eyes (COMPARE)

November 25, 2019 updated by: Ivantis, Inc.

A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Comparison of the Hydrus to the iStent® for Lowering Intraocular Pressure in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

This clinical trial compares two implantable devices intended to lower the pressure inside the eye of glaucoma patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multicenter, single-masked, randomized clinical trial comparing the Hydrus Microstent to two iStent implants for the reduction of intraocular pressure in phakic patients with a positive diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, or pigmentary dispersion glaucoma. Post-operative follow-up visits will be conducted at regular intervals.
