OHTS found some glaucoma patients had rapid visual field loss despite follow-up, emphasizing careful monitoring and early treatment for ocular hypertensive patients at high risk.

This study found preperimetric glaucoma doesn't reduce quality of life, but visual field loss does. This suggests clinicians can delay aggressive treatment for early glaucoma without visual field loss.

After 20 years, nearly half of OHTS participants developed POAG, but only one-fourth experienced visual field loss, aiding personalized ocular hypertension management decisions.

This study compares tube shunts and trabeculectomy with mitomycin C for uncontrolled glaucoma, aiming to determine which primary surgery is more effective, providing crucial data for clinical practice.

The TVT Study found tube shunts had higher success and fewer complications than trabeculectomy in complex glaucoma, supporting their broader use beyond refractory cases.

Experts recommend surgery (trabeculectomy) for glaucoma progression despite "normal" intraocular pressure on full medical treatment, highlighting that IOP alone isn't the sole treatment target.

This study compared tube shunts to trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients with prior eye surgery, finding no baseline differences between groups. Future results will guide surgical choices for these complex cases.
