First Patient Treated in Myra Vision's U.S. ADAPT Clinical Study for Glaucoma

The ADAPT trial will enroll up to 70 refractory glaucoma patients to assess safety and effectiveness of the first adjustable glaucoma shunt in the U.S.

  • On Jan. 26, 2026, Myra Vision announced it enrolled the first patient in the ADAPT IDE study, with Dr. David Godfrey performing the initial case at Glaucoma Associates of Texas.
  • Following FDA Investigational Device Exemption approval in August 2025, Myra Vision is developing an aqueous shunt to enable safe, personalized intraocular pressure control, addressing the lack of postoperative adjustability in traditional glaucoma surgery.
  • The ADAPT trial will evaluate safety and effectiveness of the Calibreye System, described as the first adjustable glaucoma shunt in the U.S., enrolling up to 70 refractory patients over 12 months.
  • Myra Vision's CEO Robert Chang said enrollment is a significant accomplishment and an important step toward delivery, while advisors and Shifamed LLC, founded by Amr Salahieh, praised the U.S. trial progress.
  • With glaucoma affecting 80M people worldwide, titratable glaucoma therapy like Calibreye could provide meaningful solutions for moderate-to-advanced patients needing individualized IOP control.
