Phacoemulsification Versus Phacotrabeculectomy in Primary Angle-closure Glaucoma With Cataract: Long-Term Clinical Outcomes.

Phacoemulsification alone reduces IOP and the need for glaucoma drugs in PACG eyes with cataracts for up to 5 years.

Regression-Based Strategies to Reduce Refractive Error-Associated Glaucoma Diagnostic Bias When Using OCT and OCT Angiography.

Myopic eyes are biased to have lower NFLT, GCCT, and NFLP-CD measurements. AL- and SE-based adjustments were effective in mitigating this bias.

Prospective study on a novel treatment for leaking cystic bleb: Efficacy and safety of collagen crosslinking.

Crosslinking achieves resolution of cystic bleb leak which lasts for at least 12 months, without the need of subsequent surgical interventions.

Statin Use and Open-Angle Glaucoma: Evidence From Observational Studies.

Sector-Based Regression Strategies to Reduce Refractive Error-Associated Glaucoma Diagnostic Bias When Using OCT and OCT Angiography.

The effect of optical magnification is even more prominent among sectors than the global parameters. AL- and SE-based adjustments should be individualized to each sector to mitigate this magnification bias effectively.

Responses to: Phacoemulsification Versus Phacotrabeculectomy in Primary Angle-closure Glaucoma With Cataract: Long-term Clinical Outcomes.

Novel Parameter of Corneal Biomechanics That Differentiate Normals From Glaucoma.

Glaucomatous eyes have a greater mean outward applanation velocity and peak distance, but shorter time to highest concavity than eyes without glaucoma.

Correlation of Intraocular Pressure Between Both Eyes After Bilateral Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty in Open-angle Glaucoma.

There is a strong and significant correlation in the IOP-lowering response to SLT between both eyes in near 80% of treated OAG subjects, whereas near 20% had an asymmetrical and inverse response to SLT between…

Detection of Glaucoma and Its Association With Diabetic Retinopathy in a Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Program.

The overall prevalence of glaucoma in this diabetic population, based on finding increased cupping of optic disc in a teleretinal screening program was 1.8% (95% confidence interval, 1.0-3.0).

Optimal selective laser trabeculoplasty energy for maximal intraocular pressure reduction in open-angle glaucoma.

A higher SLT energy, in the range of 214.6 to 234.9 mJ, seems to be associated with an improved IOP-lowering response. Further randomized control trials with treatment stratification are needed to confirm these results.

Prospective study on the efficacy of treating normal tension glaucoma with a single session of selective laser trabeculoplasty.

A single session of SLT for NTG achieved an additional 20% reduction in IOP with 27% less medication at 6 months compared with prestudy levels while maintaining a 30% reduction from baseline IOP.
