This study found moderate ambient humidity over 1-2 weeks reduced IOP, while very high humidity increased IOP, specifically in glaucoma patients, suggesting humidity influences IOP.

Cooler temperatures (2.2-12.2°C) increased IOP in non-glaucoma patients, while warmer exposure decreased it; glaucoma patients showed no such nonlinear effect. This highlights environmental temperature's influence on IOP, especially in non-glaucoma individuals.

EXG patients showed higher systolic and lower diastolic BP than POAG, especially under 60, suggesting distinct vascular pathology and the need for age-stratified BP management in glaucoma.

Glaucoma surgery causes progressive corneal cell loss; lower postoperative eye pressure is a risk factor. Monitor endothelial health in patients with sustained low pressures after surgery.

Cultured corneal cell injection for endothelial failure was safe and effective for 5 years, restoring corneal function and vision in most patients, offering a promising alternative to corneal transplants.

This study found corneal endothelial cell density significantly decreases over time specifically near trabeculectomy blebs, suggesting the bleb's role in localized cell loss warrants further investigation.
