Laser Peripheral Iridotomy in Primary Angle Closure: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Laser peripheral iridotomy increases angle width in all stages of primary angle closure and has a good safety profile.

Spectral-Domain OCT: Helping the Clinician Diagnose Glaucoma: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Structural glaucomatous damage can be detected by SD OCT. Optic nerve, RNFL, and macular parameters can help the clinician distinguish the anatomic changes that are associated with patients with glaucoma when compared with normal subjects.

OCT Angiography for the Diagnosis of Glaucoma: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Vessel density loss associated with glaucoma can be detected by OCTA. Peripapillary, macular, and choroidal vessel density parameters may complement visual field and structural OCT measurements in the diagnosis of glaucoma.

The Effect of Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Agents on Intraocular Pressure and Glaucoma: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF agents results in an immediate and transient increase in IOP.

Swept-Source OCT for Evaluating the Lamina Cribrosa: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Imaging of the lamina cribrosa using SS-OCT has demonstrated that the lamina cribrosa is likely biomechanically active and that significant changes occur in glaucoma.

Micropulse Cyclophotocoagulation: A Multicenter Study of Efficacy, Safety, and Factors Associated With Increased Risk of Complications.

MPCP lowered IOP in the short-term but nearly half required additional IOP lowering intervention.

Prioritizing outcome preferences in patients with ocular hypertension and open-angle glaucoma using best-worst scaling.

Determining the relative importance of glaucoma outcomes to patients can help researchers design studies that may better inform clinical and regulatory decision-making.

Blebitis After EX-PRESS Glaucoma Filtration Device Implantation-A Case Series.

This case series suggests that blebitis after EX-PRESS GFD implanted under a scleral flap may be treated without removal of the device. Further study is required to determine the optimal method of treating this condition.

The Effect of Phacoemulsification on Intraocular Pressure in Glaucoma Patients: A Report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Phacoemulsification typically results in small, moderate, and marked reductions of IOP and medications for patients with POAG, PXG, and PACG, respectively, and using 1 to 2 medications before surgery.
