Practice Preferences for Glaucoma Surgery: A Survey of the American Glaucoma Society.

The use of GDD has increased and that of trabeculectomy has concurrently decreased over the past 2 decades.

Using Large Language Models to Generate Educational Materials on Childhood Glaucoma.

LLMs can serve as strong supplemental tools in generating high-quality, accurate, and novel PEMs, and improving the readability of existing PEMs on childhood glaucoma.

A Geodemographic Service Coverage Analysis of Travel Time to Glaucoma Specialists in Florida.

There is a significant travel burden for the elderly community of Florida to reach AGS providers.

Risk Factors for Glaucoma Drainage Device Failure and Complication in the Pediatric Population.

Although GDD implantation in children is relatively safe and effective, these data should be interpreted in the context of children's relative longevity.

Ahmed and Baerveldt Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Childhood Glaucoma: A Meta-Analysis.

The IOP and glaucoma medication reduction, success rates, and incidence of postoperative complications were comparable in Ahmed and Baerveldt groups.

Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRISRegistry 1-Year Composite Outcome Analysis with Comparisons to the Randomized Controlled Trial.

Our results were different from those in the TVT RCT. Possible reasons include non-Baerveldt tubes, greater severity among tube eyes, and practice patterns that reflect real-world data, which are different than those in RCTs.

The Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRIS® Registry Study: Cohort Selection and Follow-up and Comparisons to the Randomized Controlled Trial.

The TVT IRIS Registry cohort had several significant treatment group differences at baseline, whereas there had been none in the TVT RCT cohort.

Factors Associated With Favorable Laser Trabeculoplasty Response: IRIS Registry Analysis.

Lower baseline IOP, angle recession, uveitis, and aphakia were associated with increased odds of nonresponse. Future studies that analyze LTP responder survival and implementation lag would facilitate resource optimization in glaucoma therapy.

Continuous Wave Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation and Endoscopic Cyclophotocoagulation in Childhood Glaucoma: A Meta-Analysis.

Both TS-CPC and ECP were effective in reducing the IOP and glaucoma medications in childhood glaucoma. Multiple treatment sessions were required.

Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRIS Registry Study: 1-Year Secondary Treatment Outcomes.

The TVTtube and trabeculectomy groups had comparable 1-year IOP reduction, although trabeculectomy eyes used fewer glaucoma medications.

Glaucoma Cascade Screening in a High Risk Afro-Caribbean Haitian Population: A Pilot Study.

Glaucoma cascade screening of Haitian JOAG patients' FDRs revealed that 30.8% had suspected or manifest glaucoma. Future efforts centered on provider-initiated recruitment and improving public glaucoma awareness and education may increase screening participation.

Neuro-ophthalmic Disease in Pediatric Glaucoma Practice.

Patients referred from pediatric glaucoma to neuro-ophthalmology often have nonglaucomatous disease requiring subspecialty evaluation and neuroimaging. Neuroimaging in this cohort is high yield for uncovering intracranial pathology.

Early Predictors of Long-term Outcomes in Childhood Glaucoma.

In this pilot study of a modest size cohort, the presence of nystagmus, ASD or failed angle surgery early in the course of infantile-onset glaucoma management predicted poor final visual outcome, whereas failed angle surgery and presence of MO predicted poor final IOP control.

Presumed Solar Retinopathy in Child With Juvenile Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Silicone Oil and Glaucoma-Related Adverse Events in Pediatric Vitreoretinal Surgery.

In this exploratory study, GRAE was commonly observed following pediatric VR surgery, particularly in patients exposed to silicone oil.

Effects of Postoperative Intravitreal Injections on Outcomes of Traditional Glaucoma Surgery in Patients with Preoperative Intravitreal Injections.

A higher number of postoperative IVIs, specifically 7 or more IVIs, may be associated with improved success rates of traditional glaucoma surgery in glaucoma patients who received IVIs before surgery.

Re: Nudleman et al.: Glaucoma after lens-sparing vitrectomy for advanced retinopathy of prematurity (Ophthalmology. 2018;125:671-675).

Adverse Events and Intraocular Pressure-Lowering Effect of Topical 0.5% Apraclonidine in Childhood Glaucoma: A Retrospective Single-Center Study.

Topical apraclonidine use demonstrated a low rate of reported adverse events and was associated with clinically meaningful IOP reduction as an adjunctive treatment in childhood glaucoma.

Factors Associated With Gonioscopy Coding Before Glaucoma Procedures in the IRISRegistry.

Preoperative gonioscopy use and/or coding is lower than expected, given current guidelines. Among glaucoma procedures, ab interno MIGS were associated with lower preoperative gonioscopy utilization.

Professional Quality of Life and Associated Factors Among Pediatric Glaucoma Providers.

Pediatric glaucoma providers derive a high level of professional satisfaction from their work, though many report moderate burnout and STS.

Incarceration of Lens Capsular Material in a Tube Shunt in an Aphakic, Vitrectomized Infant Eye.

Acute Increase in Intraocular Pressure in a Patient With a Glaucoma Drainage Implant.
