A neuroglia-based interpretation of glaucomatous neuroretinal rim thinning in the optic nerve head.

Findings relevant to the possible mechanism of the astrocyte death in advanced glaucoma are also emerging. Ultimately, a better understanding of glaucomatous glial response may lead to glia-targeting neuroprotection in the future.

Clinical Course and Risk Factors for Visual Field Progression in Normal-Tension Glaucoma With Myopia Without Glaucoma Medications.

NTG with myopia seems to have a slow progression rate even without glaucoma medications.

Border Tissue Morphology Is Spatially Associated with Focal Lamina Cribrosa Defect and Deep-Layer Microvasculature Dropout in Open-Angle Glaucoma.

There was a topographical correlation among the locations of focal LC defect, MvD and maximum border length.

Cytokine and Growth Factor Analysis in Exfoliation Syndrome and Glaucoma.

Both TGF-β1 and inflammatory cytokines were highly expressed in the AH of patients with XFG.

Risk of Dementia in Newly Diagnosed Glaucoma: A Nationwide Cohort Study in Korea.

This nationwide cohort study found that individuals with newly diagnosed glaucoma were at a higher risk of developing dementia, particularly AD.

Applicability of ISNT Rule Using BMO-MRW to Differentiate Between Healthy and Glaucomatous Eyes.

Application of the ISNT rule using BMO-MRW shows superiority in distinguishing between healthy and glaucomatous optic discs compared with disc photographs.

Difference in Topographic Pattern of Prelaminar and Neuroretinal Rim Thinning Between Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy and Glaucoma.

NAION and NTG showed significantly different distributions of prelaminar and NRR tissue thicknesses despite similar RNFL thicknesses, with the maximal difference being the horizontal cup wall thickness at the knee of curve.

Deep Optic Nerve Head Morphology Is Associated With Pattern of Glaucomatous Visual Field Defect in Open-Angle Glaucoma.

The locations of maximum deep ONH parameters were associated with the location of dominant VF defects and presence of paracentral scotoma in OAG eyes.

Understanding glaucoma as astrocyte-driven neurodegeneration in the optic nerve head: an integrative clinicopathological perspective.

Recent optical coherence tomography-based insights into the regional vulnerability in human glaucoma are discussed.

Clinical Characteristics of Autosomal Dominant GJA1 Missense Mutation Linked to Oculodentodigital Dysplasia in a Korean Family.

This report describes detailed ocular characteristics in a genetically confirmed ODDD family, including unreported findings of thick cornea and myopic refractive error despite short axial length.

Natural Course and Risk Factors of Glaucoma Development in the Untreated Fellow Eye in Unilateral Normal-Tension Glaucoma.

In this 8-year cohort, we observed NTG development in the untreated fellow eyes in 24.7% of the patients with unilateral NTG.

Short-term efficacy and safety of A-stream glaucoma shunt: a 6-month study.

The A-stream demonstrated excellent short-term efficacy and safety in lowering IOP with high success rates.

Earliest location of glaucomatous retinal nerve fibre layer damage is determined by intact baseline RNFL thickness profile.

The location of the earliest RNFL defect in glaucoma showed a close relationship with the intact RNFL profile within the same eye, regardless of variations in RNFL, hemispheric location and vessel distribution.

Measurement of Aqueous Humor Viscosity in an Experimental Rabbit Model With Corneal Neovascularization.

AH viscosity positively correlated with VEGF-A concentration, particularly in CNV-induced eyes with elevated VEGF-A levels.
