A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Hydrus and iStent Microinvasive Glaucoma Surgery Implants for Standalone Treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma: The COMPARE Study.

Standalone MIGS in OAG with the Hydrus resulted in a higher surgical success rate and fewer medications compared with the 2-iStent procedure. The 2 MIGS devices have similar safety profiles.
