Intraocular Pressure After Preserflo / Innfocus Microshunt Implantation vs Trabeculectomy (PAINT)

June 18, 2020 updated by: Medical University Innsbruck

Intraocular Pressure After Preserflo /Innfocus Microshunt vs Trabeculectomy: a Prospective, Randomised Control-trial (PAINT-Study)

The aim of this project is to compare trabeculectomy with Preserflo / Innfocus Microshunt in patients with Primary Angle Open Glaucoma and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma regarding the reduction of intraocular pressure.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Microshunt
Patients will be treated with Preserflo / Innfocus Microshunt (Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.).
The Microshunt features an 8.5-mm tube with an outer diameter of 350 µm and a 70-µm diameter lumen. Implantation creates a subconjunctival bleb and lowers intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor outflow.
Active Comparator: Trabeculectomy
Patients will be treated with trabeculectomy.
Trabeculectomy is the most commonly performed surgical procedure and is considered the gold standard.
