Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Proudfoot James A, Penteado Rafaella C, Kyung Haksu et al.
This study found that macular vessel density and ganglion cell complex thickness are both significantly linked to central vision loss in advanced glaucoma, suggesting they are complementary tools for monitoring disease.
El-Nimri Nevin W, Moghimi Sasan, Penteado Rafaella C, Ghahari Elham, Yang Diya, Brye Nicole et al.
LBN significantly increased macular blood vessel density in glaucoma/OHT patients, unlike timolol, suggesting LBN may offer superior retinal perfusion benefits beyond IOP reduction.
Villatoro George, Bowd Christopher, Proudfoot James A, Manalastas Patricia I C, Nguyen Khoa D, Hou Huiyuan et al.
Pupil dilation with phenylephrine/tropicamide caused small, statistically significant reductions in healthy eyes' OCTA circumpapillary capillary density. While likely not clinically significant, clinicians should consider this when interpreting dilated OCTA results.
Penteado Rafaella C, Bowd Christopher, Proudfoot James A, Moghimi Sasan, Manalastas Patricia I C, Ghahari Elham et al.
Studying OCT-A macula vessel density, 6x6mm scans (outer region) improved early glaucoma detection compared to 3x3mm scans, offering better diagnostic accuracy for mild disease.
Hou Huiyuan, Moghimi Sasan, Proudfoot James A, Ghahari Elham, Penteado Rafaella C, Bowd Christopher et al.
This study found that in primary open-angle glaucoma, macular vessel density loss occurs faster than ganglion cell thinning and correlates with disease severity, making it useful for monitoring progression.
Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Manalastas Patricia Isabel C, Suh Min Hee, Penteado Rafaella C, Hou Huiyuan et al.
Glaucoma patients with lamina cribrosa defects showed twice as fast retinal nerve fiber layer thinning, particularly in affected regions. This suggests LC defects are a significant, localized progression risk factor.
Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Proudfoot James, Hasenstab Kyle A, Hou Huiyuan et al.
This study found that reduced blood vessel density in the macula and optic nerve, measured by OCTA, correlates with worse visual field in advanced glaucoma, highlighting microvascular changes in disease progression.
Moghimi Sasan, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Penteado Rafaella C, Hasenstab Kyle, Hou Huiyuan et al.
OCTA perifoveal vessel density lacks a measurement floor, making it promising for monitoring advanced glaucoma, despite OCT thickness parameters having more measurable steps in earlier disease.
Hou Huiyuan, Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Shoji Takuhei, Ghahari Elham, Penteado Rafaella C et al.
This study found that ganglion cell complex thinning exceeded macula vessel density loss in early glaucoma, yet both OCT-A and OCT equally detected early disease.
Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Penteado Rafaella C, Hasenstab Kyle, Ghahari Elham, Hou Huiyuan et al.
Lower baseline macular/optic nerve head vessel density predicts faster retinal nerve fiber layer loss in glaucoma, offering a potential new marker for progression risk.
Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Suh Min Hee, Shoji Takuhei, Hasenstab Kyle A et al.
This study found that while macular vessel density was similar in glaucoma patients with and without lamina cribrosa defects, focal ganglion cell loss was greater in those with defects, suggesting vessel density alone may be insufficient for assessing macular glaucoma.
Hou Huiyuan, Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Shoji Takuhei, Ghahari Elham, Manalastas Patricia Isabel C et al.
This study found glaucoma suspects have significantly greater inter-eye retinal vessel density asymmetry than healthy eyes, suggesting OCT-A asymmetry may aid early glaucoma detection.
Hou Huiyuan, Shoji Takuhei, Zangwill Linda M, Moghimi Sasan, Saunders Luke J, Hasenstab Kyle et al.
This study found primary open-angle glaucoma patients with treated type 2 diabetes experienced significantly slower retinal nerve fiber layer thinning than non-diabetics, suggesting a unique progression profile.
Pakravan Mohammad, Javadi Mohammad Ali, Yazdani Shahin, Ghahari Elham, Behroozi Zohreh, Soleimanizad Reza et al.
This study found average IOP, CCT, and VCDR values in healthy Iranians, differing from other ethnicities. Clinically, these population-specific norms are crucial for accurate glaucoma diagnosis and management.

This study found adjunctive MMC or AMT with Ahmed valve implantation did not improve success rates, IOP, or complications, including hypertensive phase, making them clinically unnecessary.
Yazdani Shahin, Miraftabi Arezoo, Pakravan Mohammad, Ghahari Elham, Tousi Betsabeh K, Sedigh Massih et al.
Iranian PCG patients with CYP1B1 mutations exhibit earlier onset, more severe disease, and require more surgeries, aiding prognosis and genetic counseling.
Pakravan Mohammad, Yazdani Shahin, Javadi Mohammad-Ali, Amini Heidar, Behroozi Zohreh, Ziaei Hossein et al.
This study found glaucoma prevalence of 4.4% in central Iran, predominantly open-angle, with nearly 90% of cases undiagnosed, highlighting a significant public health challenge requiring improved screening.
