Hydrus Microstent implanted in the eye immediately following cataract surgery and placement of a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL)

Crescent-shaped nitinol device intended as a permanent implant to provide an outflow pathway for aqueous humor. The device is placed through the trabecular meshwork into Schlemm's canal immediately following placement of a monofocal IOL.

The position of the implant will be assessed visually intraoperatively and at each postoperative follow-up visit. Examples of clinically significant device malposition associated with clinical sequelae as listed in the protocol include secondary surgical intervention to modify device position or to remove the device (explantation), corneal endothelial touch by device, iris touch by the device associated with intraocular inflammation, pigment dispersion or other sequelae, central endothelial cell loss ≥30 percent, compromised corneal function, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) loss of 2 lines (10 letters) or more on the ETDRS chart, device obstruction requiring secondary surgical intervention, persistent anterior chamber inflammation with peripheral anterior synechiae, persistent anterior chamber inflammation without peripheral anterior synechiae, and chronic pain.

Intraoperative ocular adverse events as specified in the protocol include hyphema obscuring the surgeon's view, choroidal hemorrhage or effusion, choroidal detachment, significant iris injury or trauma, corneal abrasion, corneal edema, zonular dialysis, cyclodialysis, cyclodialysis cleft, iridodialysis, vitreous loss not associated with the cataract procedure, inadvertent perforation of the sclera, and Descemet's membrane detachment.
