This study found that differences in corneal hysteresis between a glaucoma patient's eyes predicted asymmetric visual field loss, highlighting corneal hysteresis as a key risk factor for progression.

This study found long-term variability in glaucoma tests (SAP, SD-OCT) is significantly higher than short-term variability. This suggests current progression algorithms may overestimate glaucoma worsening by underestimating long-term variability.

Despite well-controlled IOP, one-quarter of glaucoma patients experienced visual field progression. Lower corneal hysteresis and thinner corneas were key risk factors, highlighting corneal biomechanics' importance in glaucoma management.

Glaucoma patients experience more visual crowding, linked to nerve fiber layer loss, impacting daily tasks. This occurs even with mild visual field loss.

This study found that -6 dB visual field loss in the better eye, considered relatively early, is already associated with significant patient-reported disability in glaucoma.

This study found macular pigment levels were similar in glaucoma patients and controls, challenging prior research. Dietary lutein and zeaxanthin intake, not glaucoma, primarily predicted macular pigment.

This study found ORA's corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) best predicted glaucoma visual field loss, suggesting it's a superior measure for predicting progression by accounting for corneal factors.

This study found lower corneal hysteresis (CH) significantly increases the risk of developing glaucoma in suspicious eyes. CH is a valuable risk factor for identifying patients prone to glaucomatous vision loss.
