Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Cataract Surgery involves the removal of the natural lens, which has become clouded (called a cataract), and insertion of an artificial lens (called an intraocular lens). This procedure is done through a small surgical incision in the eye.
The CyPass Micro-Stent is a small tube with a through-lumen designed to redirect aqueous fluid from the front to the back of the eye. The CyPass is implanted in the eye after completion of cataract surgery.
