Comparison of efficacy and early surgery-related complications between one-quadrant and two-quadrant microhook ab interno trabeculotomy: a propensity score matched study.

The 1-year success rate was not significantly different between 1- and 2-quadrant incisions of microhook TLO. However, the 2-quadrant TLO showed significantly higher proportion of post-surgical transient IOP elevation.

Association of the prolonged use of anti-glaucoma medications with the surgical failure of ab interno microhook trabeculotomy.

The prolonged use of multiple glaucoma drugs adversely affected the outcome of μTLO at least at 1 year postoperatively.

Noninferiority of Microhook to Trabectome: Trabectome versus Ab Interno Microhook Trabeculotomy Comparative Study (Tram Trac Study).

Surgical success of μTLO at 1 year after was not inferior to that of Trabectome surgery.

En Face Slab Images Visualize Nerve Fibers With Residual Visual Sensitivity in Significantly Thinned Macular Areas of Advanced Glaucomatous Eyes.

En face slab images of maculae were able to reveal the residual nerve fiber bundles in the eyes with advanced glaucoma despite the GCL+IPL thickness in the maculae being diffusely and substantially reduced.

Three-year outcome of sulcus fixation of Baerveldt glaucoma implant surgery.

Sulcus fixation of BGI was effective for IOP reduction. However, ECD decreased over time.

Discordance of Disc-Fovea Raphe Angles Determined by Optical Coherence Tomography and MP-3 Microperimetry in Eyes With a Glaucomatous Hemifield Defect.

The structural temporal raphe was more deviated to the perimetrically normal hemiretina side than to the functional temporal raphe, thereby suggesting that a structural change may precede a functional loss.

Impact of glaucoma medications on subsequent Schlemm's canal surgery outcome: Cox proportional hazard model and propensity score-matched analysis.

Our study suggests that preoperative medications that do not involve conventional pathway outflow have a detrimental effect on subsequent Schlemm's canal surgery outcomes.

Orientation-based evaluation of scleral collagen fibers in uveitic secondary glaucoma.

Scleral flaps excised during trabeculectomy in UG eyes exhibited significantly higher coherency, indicating greater fiber alignment, and higher energy, reflecting denser orientation information, compared with POAG eyes.

The Ability of SD-OCT to Differentiate Early Glaucoma With High Myopia From Highly Myopic Controls and Nonhighly Myopic Controls.

The abilities of the three OCT instruments to detect early glaucomatous eyes with high myopia were different if the normal eyes were associated with high myopia or not.
