Cataract Surgery Outcomes in Eyes With Primary Epiretinal Membrane.

On average, VA improved 0.27 logMAR (approximately 3 Snellen lines) in eyes with ERM.

Using Large Language Models to Generate Educational Materials on Childhood Glaucoma.

LLMs can serve as strong supplemental tools in generating high-quality, accurate, and novel PEMs, and improving the readability of existing PEMs on childhood glaucoma.

Association of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma with Diabetic Retinopathy among Patients with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes: A Large Global Database Study.

Our findings underscore a substantial association between POAG and DR development in both T1DM and T2DM patients, emphasizing the need for vigilant screening and comprehensive management in glaucomatous patients with DM to mitigate the risk of DR.

Ahmed and Baerveldt Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Childhood Glaucoma: A Meta-Analysis.

The IOP and glaucoma medication reduction, success rates, and incidence of postoperative complications were comparable in Ahmed and Baerveldt groups.

Effectiveness and Safety of Trabeculectomy Versus Tube Shunt Implantation for Uveitic Glaucoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Trabeculectomy and GDDs demonstrated comparable effectiveness in reducing IOP or glaucoma medication reduction in UG.

Incidence of Uveitis Following Initiation of Prostaglandin Analogs versus Other Glaucoma Medications: A Study from the Sight Outcomes Research Collaborative Repository.

The use of PGAs was not associated with higher odds of developing uveitis compared with other classes of topical glaucoma medications.

Continuous Wave Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation and Endoscopic Cyclophotocoagulation in Childhood Glaucoma: A Meta-Analysis.

Both TS-CPC and ECP were effective in reducing the IOP and glaucoma medications in childhood glaucoma. Multiple treatment sessions were required.

Short-term safety of dexamethasone implant for treatment of macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion, in eyes with glaucoma or treated ocular hypertension.

The short-term IOP rise after intravitreal dexamethasone implant in eyes with glaucoma or ocular hypertension at baseline was acceptable and consistent with previous reports in patients without preexisting glaucoma.

Publication rate of abstracts presented at American Glaucoma Society annual meetings.

In-the-Bag Uveitis-Glaucoma-Hyphema Syndrome with Iris Chafing: Anterior Segment OCT.

Diabetic Retinopathy as a Risk Factor for Ocular Hypertension or Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma in a United States-based Cohort Study.

DR is significantly associated with OHT and POAG, particularly in T1DM. These findings emphasize the need for vigilant screening and comprehensive management of diabetic patients with coexisting DR.
