This study found 3D OCT angle parameters effectively detect angle closure, but certain horizontal 2D measurements perform similarly, suggesting simpler scans can be sufficient for diagnosis.

Studying OCT pRNFL, researchers found ethnicity-specific databases improved glaucoma diagnostic specificity in white patients, suggesting their utility for more accurate detection.

This study found iStent with cataract surgery is more effective at lowering IOP and medication use in mild primary open-angle glaucoma than in moderate or severe cases.

Clear lens extraction effectively widens the angle and lowers eye pressure in angle closure, but requires experienced surgeons and long-term safety data are still needed.

US glaucoma medication use remained stable from 1999-2014, with no increase in users or drops per patient, but significant shifts occurred towards prostaglandin analogs and away from beta-blockers.

This study found fellow eyes of acute primary angle closure have narrower angles, more anterior lenses, and thicker irises than phacomorphic angle closure, aiding differentiation for clinical management.

This meta-analysis found normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is common in the Chinese population, comprising 70% of primary open-angle glaucoma cases and having a 1.0% overall prevalence, informing public health strategies.

This study found iStent with cataract surgery significantly improved success rates and reduced medication in combined-mechanism glaucoma, comparable to its effect in open-angle glaucoma, offering a valuable treatment option.

Vietnamese individuals have thicker RNFL than Cirrus's database, causing poor color-code agreement. This highlights the need for ethnicity-specific normative databases for accurate glaucoma diagnosis.

Perez Claudio I, Chansangpetch Sunee, Feinstein Max, Mora Marta, Nguyen Anwell, Badr Mai et al.

This study found a new gonioscopy score, along with preoperative IOP and anterior chamber depth, predicts intraocular pressure reduction after cataract surgery, offering easy clinical estimation.

Chansangpetch Sunee, Huang Guofu, Coh Paul, Oldenburg Catherine, Amoozgar Behzad, He Mingguang et al.

This study found Chinese individuals have thicker RNFL but possibly thinner GCC than Caucasians. This racial variation is crucial for accurate glaucoma diagnosis and monitoring.

This study found lower BMI is linked to increased open-angle glaucoma risk in South Koreans, particularly in women and younger adults, suggesting BMI could be a relevant clinical factor.

Chansangpetch Sunee, Nguyen Anwell, Mora Marta, Badr Mai, He Mingguang, Porco Travis C et al.

This study compared two AS-OCT devices, finding generally good agreement but significant biases in angle parameters, meaning their measurements should not be used interchangeably in clinical practice.

Chansangpetch Sunee, Rojanapongpun Prin, Lin Shan C

AS-imaging for angle closure outperforms gonioscopy in detection, reproducibility, and understanding mechanisms. It's a valuable adjunctive tool, potentially becoming a first-line screening method for at-risk patients.

Masis Solano Marisse, Lin Shan C

Cataract surgery lowers eye pressure, especially in narrow angles, by mechanically altering anterior segment anatomy, making it a key glaucoma treatment.

Moghimi Sasan, Bijani Faezeh, Chen Rebecca, Yasseri Mehdi, He Mingguang, Lin Shan C et al.

LPI widened angles in both APAC and fellow eyes. APAC eyes also showed deeper anterior chambers and posterior lens shift after attack resolution, improving clinical outcomes.

This study found myopia significantly alters corneal biomechanics (lower rigidity) in both glaucoma and non-glaucoma patients, with glaucoma potentially enhancing these changes, which is crucial for accurate glaucoma diagnosis.

Masis Marisse, Chen Rebecca, Porco Travis, Lin Shan C

This study found trabecular meshwork height is significantly shorter in PACG than POAG, potentially aiding understanding, diagnosis, and management of angle-closure glaucoma.

Masis Marisse, Mineault Patrick J, Phan Eileen, Lin Shan C

This meta-analysis found cataract surgery significantly lowers IOP, especially in angle-closure glaucoma (-6.4 mmHg) and open-angle glaucoma (-2.7 mmHg), providing a valuable glaucoma treatment option.

Hsia Yen C, Moghimi Sasan, Coh Paul, Chen Rebecca, Masis Marisse, Lin Shan C

Cataract surgery in open-angle glaucoma showed greater IOP reduction in narrower angles. Preoperative IOP, angle-opening distance, and lens vault predict this reduction, helping identify patients benefiting most.

Amoozgar Behzad, Moghimi Sasan, Han Ying, Lin Shan C

This review highlights combined laser/surgical approaches targeting the lens and angle structures as a promising strategy to prevent angle closure glaucoma, improving patient outcomes.

Amoozgar Behzad, Phan Eileen N, Lin Shan C, Han Ying

Newer ciliary body laser procedures for glaucoma offer safer, more precise IOP control with fewer complications than traditional methods, improving patient outcomes.

Moghimi Sasan, Kiaroudi Mohammadyaser, Coh Paul, Li Yingjie, He Mingguang, Lin Shan C

ASOCT showed anterior chamber parameters are largely similar between pupillary block and plateau iris configuration, though plateau iris eyes may have thicker irises. This suggests overlapping mechanisms for angle closure.
