Study Arms (2)

Trabectome-IOL

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Combined Trabectome and cataract extraction with intraocular lens insertion

Procedure: Trabectome-IOL

Trab-IOL

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Combined Trabeculetomy with Mitomycin C and cataract extraction with intraocular lens insertion

Procedure: Trab-IOL

Interventions

Trabectome removes an arc of trabecular meshwork and inner wall of Schlemm's canal to enhance aqueous outflow through natural drainage pathways. Trabectome will be done first, followed by cataract surgery because Trabectome requires a clear view through the cornea using a goniolens, and this view may be compromised after cataract surgery.

Trabectome-IOL
Trab-IOLPROCEDURE

Trabeculectomy bypasses the normal aqueous outflow channels of the eye and creates an external filtration pathway (called a filtering bleb) for aqueous to drain and be reabsorbed back into the circulation. Mitomycin C is an agent used during this procedure to decrease scar formation around the new passage. Cataract surgery will be done first, followed by Trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C.
