Study Summary

This trial will study the use of a sustained release steroid insert to help control intraocular pressure and reduce scarring in patients who have glaucoma surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with glaucoma, except those with inflammation-related types like uveitis. It's for patients planning to have glaucoma tube implant surgery or combined cataract and glaucoma surgery. Participants must not be pregnant, willing to follow the study plan, and able to give informed consent.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if a Yutiq steroid insert can safely control eye pressure and reduce scarring when implanted during glaucoma tube implant surgery. The goal is to see if there's a significant difference in eye pressure after 12 weeks compared to surgeries without Yutiq.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of the Yutiq insert may include increased risk of infection, possible allergic reactions, and complications related to steroid use such as elevated eye pressure.
