Characteristics and publication status of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery trials registered in ClinicalTrials.gov, 2007-2024: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the characteristics and publication status of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) clinical trials registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Design

A cross-sectional study.

Methods

All 1212 interventional glaucoma trials registered on ClinicalTrials.gov with start dates between 1 October 2007 and 30 April 2024 were included. All trials were categorised into 'MIGS trials' and 'other interventional glaucoma trials'.
