Pseudoexfoliative glaucoma is a glaucoma secondary to pseudoexfoliative syndrome; cataract surgery is often more difficult, with more complications. Tran's cannula is a single-use irrigation system designed for cleaning, with the pseudoexfoliative material remaining in the trabecular meshwork. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the Tran cannula, in comparison with increased irrigation, in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma and treated for glaucoma, and with an indication for isolated cataract surgery.

After phacoemulsification, implantation of the intraocular implant and aspiration of the viscoelastic, we connect the TranCanula® to the irrigation system. Then we treat the trabecular mesh.
After phacoemulsification, We use the classical aspiration cannula to irrigate the trabecular mesh.
