Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Rate of sight-threatening adverse events | 36 months |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Other adverse events | 36 months | For other adverse events such as increase in intra-ocular pressure (IOP) of ≥ 10 mmHg at any time postoperative, loss of best spectacle corrected visual acuity of ≥ 2 lines (≥ 10 letters) postoperative as compared to baseline or best recorded visual acuity measured at any visit postoperative, the rate of each event at each visit will be calculated for the two treatment groups separately. |
Other
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Diurnal IOP reduction ≥ 20% | Baseline and 24 months |
