Evaluation of a New Rebound Self-tonometer, Icare HOME: Comparison With Goldmann Applanation Tonometer.

The Icare HOME tonometer is feasible for use in self-monitoring of IOP. Icare HOME tonometry measurements tend to overestimate IOP relative to GAT measurements.

Long-term clinical course of normotensive preperimetric glaucoma.

Our findings confirmed that the mean IOP, but not the IOP fluctuation, is strongly associated with the development of a VFD in cases of PPG.

Comparison of Changes in Macular Ganglion Cell-Inner Plexiform Layer Thickness Between Medically and Surgically Treated Eyes With Advanced Glaucoma.

The structure of the mGCIPL was better preserved in STE than in MTE, even when the IOPs during follow-up were similar.

Localization in Glaucomatous Visual Field Loss Vulnerable to Posture-Induced Intraocular Pressure Changes in Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Posture-induced IOP variations have been shown to be associated with glaucomatous superior paracentral visual field defects.

Relationship Between Macular Perfusion Density and Central Visual Field Loss in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma.

Outer nasal MPD is strongly associated with central functional loss across severities and adds information complementary to mGCIPL, supporting OCTA as a useful adjunct when structural OCT approaches a floor, including in advanced disease.

Blindness and prognostic factors after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C in patients with open-angle glaucoma with long-term follow-up.

One-eighth and one-sixth of the eyes became blind at 10 and 20 years post-trabeculectomy using MMC.

Development of Glaucomatous Visual Field Defects in Preperimetric Glaucoma Patients Within 3 Years of Diagnosis.

Significant structural changes were observed in the mGCIPL and cpRNFL at PPG diagnosis, before the development of a VFDs. Close monitoring of intraocular pressure is essential for the appropriate management of PPG.

Fluctuation of Bacteria on Bleb Surface After Trabeculectomy With Adjunctive Mitomycin C.

It is not rare to detect the bacterial organisms on the bleb surface in glaucomatous eyes that had undergone trabeculectomy. The prevalence varied with the season and was highest in the autumn.

Progression to Legal Blindness in Patients With Normal Tension Glaucoma: Hospital-Based Study.

The probability of blindness in eyes with NTG is much lower than previously reported in patients with high-tension glaucoma.
