This study found long axial length is a significant risk factor for both normal tension and primary open-angle glaucoma, suggesting patients with longer eyes need careful glaucoma screening.

Modified deep sclerectomy (D-lectomy MMC) achieved comparable IOP reduction to trabeculectomy for glaucoma, but with fewer filtering blebs. This suggests a potentially effective alternative with different post-operative characteristics.

This study found high preoperative IOP, more medications, and postoperative IOP spikes increase the risk of uncontrolled pressure after phacoviscocanalostomy, while older age decreases risk.

This study found mild diabetic retinopathy causes RNFL measurement differences between GDx-VCC and StratusOCT in healthy eyes, but both devices remain effective for glaucoma detection even with diabetes.

Phacoviscocanalostomy for normal-tension glaucoma and cataract significantly lowered IOP and better preserved visual fields compared to cataract surgery alone, offering a safe, effective combined treatment.

Phaco-viscocanalostomy provided better IOP control and fewer complications than phaco-trabeculotomy in open-angle glaucoma, suggesting it's a safer, more effective surgical option.

Diabetes thins the retinal nerve fiber layer, worsening with retinopathy severity, which can lead to false-positive glaucoma diagnoses using scanning laser polarimetry.

Studying phaco-viscocanalostomy, JCT peeling didn't improve long-term IOP but reduced early IOP spikes and complications. This adjunctive step may benefit glaucoma patients.

Endoscopy during viscocanalostomy showed viscoelastic material filling and disrupting Schlemm's canal, suggesting inner wall disruption contributes to IOP reduction, improving glaucoma treatment understanding.
