A study of 1.1 million patients found preoperative gonioscopy was coded in only 63.2% before glaucoma procedures, lower than expected. This suggests underutilization or under-coding, particularly before MIGS, impacting surgical planning.

Intravitreal steroid implants in eyes with glaucoma drainage devices did not significantly raise IOP, were safe, and effectively treated macular edema, suggesting their safe use in these complex patients.

Patients preferred novel tablet-based and SVFA perimetry tests over traditional methods for glaucoma monitoring, finding them positive for potential home use, though daily testing willingness decreased over time.

Combined phaco/ECP surgery reduced eye pressure more in angle-closure glaucoma than open-angle, benefiting all glaucoma stages. This suggests better outcomes for angle-closure patients.
