Precision of Optic Nerve Head and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Parameter Measurements by Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography.

For R&R, the COVs of measured parameters were by trend higher for glaucoma eyes compared with normal controls.

Can Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression be Predicted by Structural and Functional Measures?

Both measurement of RNFLT by OCT and Glaucoma probability score by CSLO are highly predictive of future visual field conversion and provide independent predictive information beyond optic disc assessment, central corneal thickness, and SAP pattern…

Predictive Factors for Visual Field Conversion: Comparison of Scanning Laser Polarimetry and Optical Coherence Tomography.

Both GDx-VCC and SD-OCT demonstrate comparable results in predicting future visual field conversion if taking typical scans for GDx-VCC.

Secondary Graft Failure After Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty: Clinical Characteristics and Ultrastructural Findings of Failed Grafts.

Eyes with secondary graft failure exhibited a higher prevalence of glaucoma and rebubbling procedures after the primary DMEK. TEM findings suggest that pressure-independent mechanisms might contribute to graft failure in glaucomatous eyes.

Establishment of an Advanced In Vitro Model for Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Glaucoma.

This advanced in vitro model, which recapitulates the hallmark of PEX syndrome/glaucoma, may provide a useful, easy-to-handle platform for studying disease mechanisms, assessing the impact of genetic and external factors, and exploring effects of targeted…

Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty for Endothelial Failure in Primary Angle Closure Suspects.

DMEK is a feasible option in eyes with endothelial failure because of primary angle closure.

Pattern electroretinogram, blue-yellow visual evoked potentials and the risk of developing visual field defects in glaucoma suspects: a longitudinal "survival" analysis with a very long follow-up.

PERG helps to estimate glaucoma suspects' risk for visual field defects.

Comparison of Bruch's Membrane Opening Minimum Rim Width and Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Early Glaucoma Assessment.

Bruch's membrane opening-MRW and RNFLT are comparably useful parameters for discrimination of preperimetric and perimetric glaucomatous eyes and show potential to assist each other in glaucoma diagnosis. (www.ClinicalTrials.gov number, NTC00494923; Erlangen Glaucoma Registry.).

Confocal Laser Scanning Tomography to Predict Visual Field Conversion in Patients With Ocular Hypertension and Early Glaucoma.

Confocal scanning laser tomography is a useful imaging modality to predict future visual field conversion.

The Effect of Long-term Antiglaucomatous Drug Administration on Central Corneal Thickness.

We recommend regular measurements before and during therapy with prostaglandin monotherapy and a combined therapy with prostaglandins, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, and β-blockers.

Predicted and measured retinal nerve fiber layer thickness from time-domain optical coherence tomography compared with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

These data suggest that the prediction of mean pRNFLT values by equations derived from TD-OCT and SD-OCT can be conducted with high levels of agreement.
