ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the effectiveness of a new treatment for people with glaucoma, specifically those who have already received a device called the iStent Infinite to help lower eye pressure. The trial compares a travoprost intraocular implant, which releases medication to help reduce eye pressure, with a sham procedure, which means participants would not receive the active treatment but would still be part of the study. The goal is to see if adding the travoprost implant can further lower eye pressure compared to just having the iStent.
To be eligible for this trial, participants need to be adults diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, which means they have higher-than-normal pressure in their eyes. However, individuals with very high eye pressure before treatment or certain eye conditions may not qualify. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the implant or the sham procedure and will be followed for 12 months to see how well their eye pressure is managed. This trial is currently recruiting participants aged 65 to 74, and both men and women can take part.
