A Comparative Study of the Water Drinking Test in Eyes With Open-Angle Glaucoma and Prior Trabeculectomy or Tube Shunt.

Subjects who had undergone either trabeculectomy or tube shunt surgery showed a similar IOP response to the WDT. Subjects on systemic antihypertensive medications experienced significantly greater IOP fluctuations during the test.

Disc-damage Likelihood Scale (DDLS) as a Clinical Indicator of the Presence of a Relative Afferent Pupillary Defect (RAPD).

IOP, DDLS, and MD asymmetries had the best correlation with RAPD status, and increased asymmetries in these parameters were associated with higher likelihood of RAPDs.

Water-drinking test in primary angle-closure suspect before and after laser peripheral iridotomy.

Primary angle-closure suspects who underwent the water-drinking test had a slightly more pronounced recovery of intraocular pressure after the laser peripheral iridotomy was performed, which may be attributed to increase in the area of exposed trabecular meshwork following treatment.

Relationships Between Measures of the Ability to Perform Vision-Related Activities, Vision-Related Quality of Life, and Clinical Findings in Patients With Glaucoma.

Contrast sensitivity tests and VF mean deviation were associated with both objective measures of the ability to act and subjective measurements of VRQoL.

Evaluation of Risk Factors for Glaucoma Drainage Device-related Erosions: A Retrospective Case-Control Study.

History of concomitant intraocular surgery with GDD implantation may be a potential risk factor for future erosions.
