Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The aim of this study is to assess whether delaying early flow through the Ahmed tube shunt may improve the post-operative surgical outcomes and provide a more predictable outcome. To assess this the investigator will conduct a, randomized prospective, multi-centered study with collaborators at WashU in St. Louis, Duke University, Indiana University and the University of Pittsburgh. Participants will be randomized to have an AGV placement with tube ligation (no-early flow) and without ligation (allowing for early flow). IOP will be measured at day one, week one, and months, one, three six, and twelve. Additionally, clinical data regarding number of glaucoma medications, and complications post-operative complications will also be collected.
