This study found endophthalmitis rates vary by ophthalmic procedure, with open globe repair having the highest risk. Pediatric cataract surgery had a higher infection rate than adult cataract surgery.

This study found Black, Hispanic, and Native American glaucoma patients had worse vision outcomes and less monitoring compared to White patients, suggesting undertreatment and increased vision loss risk in these groups.

Hall Nathan, Douglas Vivian Paraskevi, Ivanov Alexander, Ross Connor, Elze Tobias, Kempen John H et al.

This IRIS Registry study found sympathetic ophthalmia is rarer than thought, with higher risk after "other anterior segment" or glaucoma procedures, and faster onset in older patients, guiding clinical decision-making.

Yang Shuang-An, Ciociola Elizabeth C, Mitchell William, Hall Nathan, Lorch Alice C, Miller Joan W et al.

This study found MIGS combined with cataract surgery had significantly lower reoperation rates than stand-alone MIGS, especially for ECP and goniotomy, impacting surgical planning for glaucoma patients.

Halawa Omar A, Jin Qingying, Pasquale Louis R, Kang Jae H, Lorch Alice C, Sobrin Lucia et al.

This study found Black, Asian, and Hispanic patients had worse baseline glaucoma. Black patients also experienced less frequent testing and faster progression, highlighting disparities needing targeted interventions.

Hall Nathan E, Chang Enchi K, Samuel Sandy, Gupta Sanchay, Klug Emma, Elze Tobias et al.

This study found chronic angle-closure glaucoma and dry eye disease increase risk of glaucoma drainage device revision/removal, informing surgical planning and patient counseling for GDD longevity.
