Popis: Purpose: To characterize clinical outcomes of combined viscodilation of Schlemm’s canal and collector channels and 360° trabeculotomy as a standalone procedure or combined with cataract surgery in eyes with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma (OAG). Methods: In this prospective case series, the OMNI glaucoma surgical platform (Sight Sciences, Menlo Park, CA) was utilized to perform the procedure either combined with phacoemulsification or as a standalone procedure. Changes from baseline in intraocular pressure (IOP) and IOP-lowering medications were evaluated through the first 12 months of a planned 24-month follow-up period. Results: Among 17 eyes of 15 subjects, mean IOP was reduced from 20.4 mmHg to 12.7–13.7 mmHg through 12 months of follow-up ( p Conclusion: Viscodilation of Schlemm’s canal and collector channels paired with ab interno trabeculotomy performed with a single integrated instrument (OMNI), whether as standalone or combined with phacoemulsification, effectively lowers both IOP and the need for IOP-lowering medications through 12 months of follow-up.
