Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators hypothesize that KeraSys is a safe as Tutoplast to cover the tube of the Molteno 3 glaucoma drainage device during surgery

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study compares patients who will undergo Molteno 3 shunt implant surgery with 1 group receiving KeraSys patch graft and the 2nd group receiving Tutoplast patch graft. The investigators will examine the efficacy and safety of KeraSys in comparison with Tutoplast and monitor the long term effectiveness for preventing tube erosion in Molteno 3 tube shunt surgery for 1 year.
