Brief Summary

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

The objective of this study is to evaluate whether reduction in topical medication with the injection of a sustained release capsule (Durysta) leads to a reduction in ocular surface inflammation, indicated by levels of caspase-1, an inflammatory biomarker.

Durysta

Participants will receive a one-time intracameral administration of Durysta - bimatoprost 10mcg

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Durysta, Bimatoprost Intracameral Implant 10 µg

Intervention Type DRUG

Participants in this arm will receive a one-time injection of Durysta (intracameral bimatoprost 10mcg). Participants will be followed by a total of 3 months.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Eye with open-angle glaucoma or suspected of open-angle glaucoma
* Pseudophakic in eye of interest with Shafer grading ≥3
* ≤ 3 daily applications of topical glaucoma medications for ≥6 months (of which one is a nightly preserved PGA)
* Good adherence to medication regimen - screening questions to be asked of potential subject:
* In the last month, what percentage of the time would you estimate missing the application of drops? (Must be ≤20%)
* When was the last administration? (Last dose must have been within last 24 hours)
* Presence of punctate epithelial erosions in the cornea (NEI scale \> 3)

Exclusion Criteria

* Retinal disease (e.g., wet age-related macular degeneration, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, central retinal vein occlusion)
* Use of topical or systemic immunosuppressor or immunomodulator drug (e.g., steroids, cyclosporine, lifitegrast, or antihistamines)
* Use of preservative-free hypotensive medications
* Any clinical contraindications to receiving intracameral bimatoprost implantation
* History of recurrent conjunctivitis (e.g., allergic or atopic conjunctivitis)
* History of partial or full corneal transplant
* History of ophthalmic surgery (intraocular or tarsus-involving oculoplastic procedures) within last 6 months
* History of subconjunctival glaucoma surgery (i.e., trabeculectomy, aqueous shunt, Xen implant) within last 6 months
