This study found SLT effectively lowered intraocular pressure in about 50% of eyes with uncontrolled glaucoma after prior trabeculectomy, offering a valuable option for further pressure reduction.

This study compared two micropulse cyclophotocoagulation techniques. Both safely lowered IOP in ~60% of glaucoma patients, but the pars plicata application was found superior and easier to perform, offering a preferred treatment option.

This study found optical and ultrasound pachymetry are not interchangeable for young adults, but can be used interchangeably in older and glaucoma patients due to age/disease-related corneal biomechanical changes affecting ultrasound speed.

AS-OCT revealed bleb encapsulation characteristics (thinner walls, higher blebs) earlier than clinical exam. This allows earlier intervention, potentially improving trabeculectomy outcomes.
