The eyeWatch system as first-line treatment in the surgical management of glaucoma compared to trabeculectomy with MMC
Descrizione riassuntiva dello studio
This study aims to determine whether the eyeWatch implant can be a safer and more effective alternative to trabeculectomy in the first-line treatment of glaucoma. The eyeWatch system has the advantage of adjusting the fluid resistance of the eye and thus regulating the intraocular pressure of the patient.
(BASEC)
Intervento studiato
The eyeWatch implant that allows for non-invasive regulation of the patient's intraocular pressure compared to traditional filtering surgery for the treatment of glaucoma, trabeculectomy.
(BASEC)
Malattie studiate
Surgical treatment of glaucoma
(BASEC)
Participation is open to all individuals suffering from open-angle glaucoma whose intraocular pressure is no longer controlled by hypotensive medications and who have not yet undergone filtering surgery. (BASEC)
Criteri di esclusione
It is closed to individuals who have previously undergone glaucoma surgery (trabeculectomy, SPIC, tube, etc.). Also excluded from the study are individuals who are pregnant or who are already participating in another clinical trial. (BASEC)
