Brief Summary

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

The study will assess safety and performance of MINIject implant in patients with open-angle glaucoma uncontrolled by topical hypotensive medications in conjunction with cataract surgery.

Detailed Description

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

The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the MINIject in the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in conjunction with cataract surgery. The cataract surgery will be performed first and if successful, only then will the MINIject be placed.

Patients will be followed for 2 years after the date of their implantation. Standard ophthalmologic assessments including measurement of intraocular pressure, fundus examination, ocular imaging, assessment of any untoward ocular events etc. will be performed.
