Ultrasound visualized bleb characteristics after PAUL glaucoma implant surgery, finding that double-layered blebs and those taller than 2mm significantly correlated with lower intraocular pressure, offering new functional markers.

Removing the PAUL implant's intraluminal stent significantly lowers IOP but carries hypotony/hemorrhage risks, with most patients eventually needing additional drops. This highlights a trade-off between efficacy and complication risk.

AS-OCT effectively monitors PAUL glaucoma implant patch graft thinning over time. Significant thinning at 3-6 months may predict tube exposure, aiding risk management and material selection.

This study found the PAUL Glaucoma Implant effectively lowered eye pressure and medication needs over two years in white patients, with a temporary stent preventing early hypotony and allowing further pressure reduction.

Glaucoma patients largely prefer ocular drug delivery devices over drops, driven by desire for effectiveness and long-lasting effects, especially if bothered by current medication.

This study found the PAUL glaucoma implant effectively lowered eye pressure and medication use over one year, with a unique stent preventing early hypotony and allowing further pressure reduction.

PGA eye drops increased corneal hysteresis, especially at higher IOPs, by upregulating MMPs, suggesting a greater biomechanical benefit in glaucoma patients with higher pressures.

Inferior trabectome surgery is safe and somewhat effective for glaucoma, but most patients still require eye drops and many need further surgery for adequate pressure control.
