The Safety and Effectiveness of the Hydrus Aqueous Implant for Lowering Intraocular Pressure in Glaucoma Patients Undergoing Cataract Surgery, A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial
This clinical trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter, study. After
informed consent is obtained, patients will be evaluated for eligibility based on glaucoma
severity, eye health, and visual acuity. Following successful screening, use of all topical
glaucoma medications will be stopped for a period of "washout" to establish a qualifying
medication-free intraocular pressure (IOP) value. Clinical follow up will be scheduled over
the course of the 24 month study, and examinations will be repeated to monitor eye health. At
the 1 and 2 year follow up, those patients on ocular hypotensive medications will be
instructed to washout, and then have the diurnal (IOP taken in the morning, mid-day, and
afternoon in the same day) IOP evaluation. Annual follow up will occur up to 5 years. The
primary effectiveness endpoint is a decrease in diurnal IOP from baseline compared to the 24
months diurnal IOP following medication washout.
