Effect of mitomycin c and 5-flurouracil adjuvant therapy on the outcomes of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation.

Adjuvant treatment with antifibrotics following Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation decreased the hypertensive phase and improved surgical outcomes without impacting complication rates at 1 year.

Reproducibility of 5 Methods of Ocular Tonometry.

The Icare and NCT both demonstrated good agreement with GAT across a wide range of IOPs and could be considered for glaucoma screening programs.

Trends in Authorship of Original Scientific Articles in Journal of Glaucoma: An Analysis of 25 Years Since the Initiation of the Journal.

Consistent with authorship trends across various other medical specialties, glaucoma has seen an increase in the number of authors and disclosures per article, authors with dual degrees, and authors from the "Far East" and "Other" regions.

Early Reoperation Rate, Complication, and Outcomes in Resident-performed Glaucoma Surgery.

Glaucoma incisional surgeries performed by third-year ophthalmology residents had acceptable and comparable reoperation rates and complication rates for patients with trabeculectomy, Ex-PRESS, and AGV. Clinical outcomes for the patients requiring reoperation were favorable.

Ophthalmic Timolol Hallucinations: A Case Series and Review of the Literature.

The rarity of this side effect and its anecdotal predilection for elderly, caucasian females with underlying neurological dysfunction, may involve a yet unknown predisposition or hypersensitivity to beta blocker action, such as blood brain barrier disruption leading to increased susceptibility to the medication.

Short-term Postoperative Visual Acuity Decrease and Recovery after Ahmed Tube Shunt Procedure for Glaucoma.

After the Ahmed tube shunt procedure, the worst CVA occurred at 1 week postoperatively and mean CVA returned to the preoperative level by month 3 postoperatively.

Comparison of Structural, Functional, Tonometric, and Visual Acuity Testing for Glaucoma: A Prospective Diagnostic Accuracy Study.

OCT had moderate sensitivity and fair specificity for diagnosing moderate to advanced glaucoma and should be prioritized during an initial assessment for glaucoma.

The Relationship Between Melanin and Glaucoma: A Case-control Study.

This study failed to find a significant association between skin pigmentation and glaucoma using an objective and reproducible assessment of pigmentation.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Frequency-Doubling Technology and the Moorfields Motion Displacement Test for Glaucoma.

Frequency-doubling technology and MDT perimetry had fair diagnostic accuracy for glaucoma detection when administered to naïve test takers in this South Indian population.

Repeatability of Corneal Hysteresis Measurements in Glaucoma Patients During Routine Follow Up and After Cataract Surgery.

CH measurements in glaucoma patients were repeatable over a 6-month period during routine follow up or following cataract surgery.

A Comparison of Resident-performed Argon and Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty in Patients With Open-angle Glaucoma.

We found no difference in IOP reduction between patients undergoing resident-performed ALT compared with SLT.

Effect of glaucoma tube shunt parameters on cornea endothelial cells in patients with Ahmed valve implants.

Although this was a retrospective study with inherent limitations, tubes that are closer to the cornea seem to lead to increased loss of adjacent endothelial cells.
