Comparing ELIOS with other devices for glaucoma patients undergoing cataract surgery
Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of ELIOS vs Competitor in Patients With Open-Angle Glaucoma Undergoing Cataract Surgery
Run by Elios Vision, Inc. · NCT06246136 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing whether the ELIOS device can safely lower eye pressure better than another device for people with mild to moderate glaucoma who are having cataract surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are individuals aged 40 and older with mild to moderate primary open-angle glaucoma and visually significant cataracts.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with angle closure glaucoma or secondary forms of glaucoma will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the ELIOS device in conjunction with cataract surgery for patients with open-angle glaucoma. It will compare the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) at 12 months post-surgery between patients using ELIOS and those using a competitor device. Participants must be 40 years or older and diagnosed with mild to moderate forms of glaucoma. The study will involve phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation as part of the surgical procedure.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a more effective treatment option for managing intraocular pressure in glaucoma patients undergoing cataract surgery.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar approaches in managing glaucoma during cataract surgery, indicating potential for success.
