MINIject in Patients With Open Angle Glaucoma Using Single Operator Delivery Tool

The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MINI SO627 and IOP (Intra- ocular pressure) lowering effects with or without the use of glaucoma medications. The procedure will be a stand alone surgery. Patient follow up with several examinations up to 24 months after surgery.

The primary endpoint is the reduction in medicated mean diurnal IOP at 6 months follow up compared to medicated diurnal IOP at baseline visit.

Inclusion criteria

• Diagnosis of primary or secondary open angle glaucoma during screening/baseline visit or earlier.
• Grade 3 or grade 4 according to Shaffer Angle Grading System.
• Glaucoma not adequately controlled by one to four different topical hypotensive medication(s), given each for at least one month, as confirmed by 21mmHg < IOP < 35 mmHg in the study eye at baseline visit.

Exclusion criteria

• Grade 2 (narrow, 20 degrees), grade 1 (extremely narrow, less or equal to 10 degrees) and grade 0 (closed or slit) according to Shaffer Angle Grading System in the study eye.
• Neovascular glaucoma in the study eye.
• Corneal opacity or iridocorneal angle not visible through gonioprism in the study eye, preventing correct placement of the implant in the stud eye.
• Prior glaucoma surgery in the study eye.
