Risk Factors for Failure in Glaucoma Patients Undergoing Microshunt Implantation.

This study identified risk factors for Microshunt failure, highlighting the importance of high intraoperative MMC dose and careful patient selection to optimize surgical success.

New Findings in Early-Stage Keratoconus: Lamina Cribrosa Curvature, Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness, and Vascular Perfusion.

Early-stage KC may be characterized by a posterior bowing of the LC along with a subtle peripapillary RNFL thinning and vascular impairment.

Smartphone-based Gonio-Imaging: A Novel Addition to Glaucoma Screening Tools.

Smartphone based imaging solutions have revolutionised the imaging in ophthalmology by virtue of their ease of use and portability.

Predictive factors of radio-induced complications in 194 eyes undergoing gamma knife radiosurgery for uveal melanoma.

Understanding factors predictive for radiation-related complications in patients undergoing GKR might help for better counselling and treatment planning.

Comparison of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer and Ganglion Cell-Inner Plexiform Layer Thickness Values Using Spectral-Domain and Swept-Source OCT.

Thickness values obtained with SD-OCT and SS-OCT are not directly interchangeable but potentially interconvertible. Both devices have a similar ability to discriminate glaucoma patients from GS and healthy subjects.

Combining Structural and Vascular Parameters to Discriminate Among Glaucoma Patients, Glaucoma Suspects, and Healthy Subjects.

Combining structural and vascular parameters in a structural-vascular index does not improve diagnostic ability over structural parameters alone.

Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Macular and Peripapillary Vessel Perfusion Density in Healthy Subjects, Glaucoma Suspects, and Glaucoma Patients.

Structural damage is evident both in the peripapillary and in macular areas.

Deep Sclerectomy With Mitomycin C and Injectable Cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid Implant: Long-term Results.

DS with Healaflow and MMC seems to be an effective and safe technique to lower IOP in patients affected by open-angle glaucoma, with few postoperative complications.

Nd:Yag laser goniopuncture for deep sclerectomy: efficacy and outcomes.

LGP is a relatively safe and effective complementary adjunct to deep sclerectomy that makes it possible to further lower IOP and avoid additional filtering surgery.
