Exfoliation glaucoma patients with significant cataracts are being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo screening to determine eligibility for study entry. Patient´s glaucoma is classified into stable or unstable glaucoma groups with their current glaucoma medication. Patients meeting the eligibility requirements of stable glaucoma will be randomised to cataract surgery combined with iStent (65 patients), II SLT (65 patients) or III cataract surgery alone (25 patients) and patient with unstable glaucoma will be randomised to cataract surgery combined with I iStent (65 patients), II SLT (65 patients).
The purpose of the study is to investigate the efficacy of an iStent trabecular microbypass stent compared to selective laser trabeculoplasty in combination with cataract surgery in eyes with exfoliation glaucoma (EXF)
