Five-Year Pooled Data Analysis of the Ahmed Baerveldt Comparison Study and the Ahmed Versus Baerveldt Study.

The Baerveldt group had a lower failure rate, lower rate of de novo glaucoma surgery, and lower mean IOP on fewer medications than the Ahmed group. Baerveldt implantation carried a higher risk of hypotony.

Two-Year Experience With Latanoprostene Bunod in Clinical Practice.

In 2 years of clinical use of LBN, patients exhibited IOP reductions that were statistically significant overall and clinically meaningful in 60% of patients. LBN was well-tolerated and may be more efficacious than traditional PGAs.

Utility of the Modified Isolated-check Visual Evoked Potential Technique in Functional Glaucoma Assessment.

icVEP technology has the potential to complement standard achromatic perimetry in functional assessment of glaucomatous defects.

Use of subconjunctival injections of 5-fluorouracil to rescue and prolong intraocular pressure reduction for a failing Ahmed glaucoma implant.

Subconjunctival injection of 5-FU sustained a significant long-term decline in intraocular pressures in eyes with failing Ahmed shunts. Outcomes between eyes receiving injections and controls were statistically similar.

Using Multi-Layer Perceptron Driven Diagnosis to Compare Biomarkers for Primary Open Angle Glaucoma.

Neural network models indicate that OCTA optic nerve head vascular biomarkers are equally useful for ML diagnosis of POAG when compared to OCT structural biomarker features alone.

Use of subconjunctival injections of 5-fluorouracil to rescue and prolong intraocular pressure reduction for a failing Ahmed glaucoma implant.

ChatGPT-Assisted Glaucoma Diagnosis: A Health-Equitable Multi-Ancestry Analysis Using Visual Field and Optical Coherence Tomography Data.

ChatGPT o1 Pro diagnosed glaucoma similarly to specialists using only VF and OCT data. The model performance was similar across ancestral groups and genetic predispositions to glaucoma.

Longitudinal Management of Primary Angle Closure Suspect.

Glaucoma Surgery and Lasers Should Be Performed by Surgeons.

Utility of the Modified Isolated-check Visual Evoked Potential Technique in Functional Glaucoma Assessment.

The Ahmed Versus Baerveldt Study: Five-Year Treatment Outcomes.

Both implants were effective in reducing IOP and the need for glaucoma medications.

Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Analysis of Perfused Peripapillary Capillaries in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma and Normal-Tension Glaucoma.

Optical coherence tomography angiography can uniquely identify changes in peripapillary PCD in glaucoma patients. Optical coherence tomography angiography may offer insights into the pathophysiology of glaucomatous damage and risk factors for disease progression.

A Quantitative Analysis of the Relationship between Medicare Payment and Service Volume for Glaucoma Procedures from 2005 through 2009.

This study calculated the association between Medicare payment and service volume for 6 commonly performed glaucoma procedures and found varying magnitudes of payment-volume elasticities, suggesting that the volume response to changes in Medicare payments, if…

Intravitreal delivery of human NgR-Fc decoy protein regenerates axons after optic nerve crush and protects ganglion cells in glaucoma models.

Human NgR1(310)-Fc has favorable pharmacokinetics in the vitreal space and rescues large diameter RGC counts from increased IOP. Thus, the NgR1 blocking decoy protein may have efficacy as a disease-modifying therapy for glaucoma.
