Trabeculectomy effectively lowered IOP in high myopia glaucoma patients without increased complications, though success rates tended to be lower than in non-myopic controls, suggesting it's a viable option.

This study found glaucoma patients have greater IOP increases with postural change and water drinking, but these tests are not interchangeable, highlighting distinct IOP stress responses.

Objective imaging devices outperformed general ophthalmologists in detecting glaucoma, but a glaucoma expert's assessment was comparable. Combining objective retinal nerve fiber layer measurements with subjective assessment improves glaucoma detection.

This study found a systematic approach to qualitative optic disc evaluation is superior to quantitative methods for glaucoma diagnosis, improving detection and management.

This study compared OCT parameters for glaucoma detection, finding retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and optic nerve head (ONH) measurements, particularly when combined, offered the best diagnostic accuracy.

This study found elevated plasma homocysteine in exfoliation syndrome and exfoliative glaucoma patients, suggesting it's a risk factor. Clinically, monitoring homocysteine may benefit these patients.

OCT tracked a boy's traumatic optic neuropathy, showing progressive nerve fiber loss over 70 days. This confirms OCT's utility for monitoring axonal damage after optic nerve trauma.
