Setting Multicenter clinical study. Design Prospective interventional case series. Methods This is an interim report of an ongoing safety study. Patients with OAG glaucoma (Shaffer grade 3 and 4) who were also candidates for cataract surgery in the affected eye had standard phacoemulsification followed by micro-stent implantation in the supraciliary space. Included were patients with uncontrolled (≥21 mm Hg, Cohort 1) or controlled ( |
