Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Imaging of Conjunctiva and Intrasclera in Treated Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

AS-OCTA images may be useful for the objective assessment of conjunctival hyperemia and helpful for understanding the pathophysiology of post-trabecular aqueous humor outflow.

Visualization of the Lamina Cribrosa Microvasculature in Normal and Glaucomatous Eyes: A Swept-source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Study.

This is the first demonstration of imaging of the inner LC microvasculature, which, in agreement with previous histologic reports, was arranged in a polygonal pattern.

Association of Bruch's membrane opening and optic disc morphology to axial length and visual field defects in eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma.

The optic disc ovality was associated with both the axial length and MD, whereas BMO ovality was not. Attention should be paid to the influence of the axial length-related enlargement of the BMO.

Relationship between oxygen saturation of the retinal vessels and visual field defect in glaucoma patients: comparison with each hemifield.

Advanced glaucomatous visual field defects were associated with increased SaOin the venous vessels and a decreased arteriovenous difference in the SaO.

Retinal oxygen saturation before and after glaucoma surgery.

Intraocular pressure (IOP) decreases caused by glaucoma surgery had an effect on the retinal venous oxygen saturation.

Branched Chain Amino Acids Promote ATP Production Via Translocation of Glucose Transporters.

BCAAs increase ATP production by promoting glucose uptake through promotion of glucose transporters translocation to the plasma membrane.

Oxygen venular saturation correlates with a functional loss in primary open-angle glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma patients.

Although there was no significant difference in retinal SaOin the venules between the better and worse hemifield when the difference between the better and worse hemifield in the patients with POAG was <5 dB, there was…

Paravascular inner retinal abnormalities in healthy eyes.

Paravascular cystoid or fissure-like spaces were frequently seen in the inner retina of healthy eyes. However, we detected no typical paravascular inner retinal defects in healthy eyes.

Relationship between Intraocular Pressure and Coffee Consumption in a Japanese Population without Glaucoma: The Nagahama Study.

Frequent coffee consumption was associated with a slightly lower IOP in people without glaucoma but was not associated with a decreased risk of glaucoma developing.

Anterior Segment OCT Angiography Images of Avascular Bleb after Trabeculectomy.

Sleep Disturbance as a Risk Factor for Retinal Neurodegeneration and Subsequent Glaucoma.

Objective sleep insufficiency and clinically diagnosed sleep disorders correlate with retinal neurodegeneration and confer a higher risk of developing glaucoma. Integrating sleep evaluation and management into ophthalmic care may aid glaucoma prevention.

Exploration of the cutoff values of axial length that is susceptible to develop advanced primary open angle glaucoma in patients aged less than 50 years.

Axial length measurement was clinically significant in assessing risk of severe or central visual field defects in young patients with POAG.

Risk of Glaucoma and Undergoing Glaucoma Surgery in Myopic and Highly Myopic Eyes: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study.

Both myopia and high myopia significantly increase the risk of glaucoma developing and the likelihood of requiring glaucoma surgery, especially for invasive filtering surgeries.

Comparison of a Novel Head-Mounted Objective Auto-perimetry (Gaze Analyzing Perimeter) and Humphrey Field Analyzer.

The results indicate that the GAP provides VF assessment outcomes comparable to those of the HFA.

Structure function relationship of paracentral visual field impairment in myopic patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.

Incidence and treatment patterns of acute retinal necrosis: a nationwide population-based cohort study.

In the largest population-based study of ARN to date, nationwide incidence in Japan closely matched prior UK estimates, suggesting cross-system consistency in ARN epidemiology.

Comparison of Surgical Outcomes of Ab Interno Trabeculotomy Using Tanito Microhook, Suture, and Trabectome.

TMH, sLOT, and TOM provide similar IOP-lowering efficacy. Considering patient factors-such as baseline IOP and lens status-and using available devices while avoiding excessively wide incisions may contribute to favorable surgical outcomes.

Outcomes of Ahmed and Baerveldt Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Japanese Patients.

In this large-scale real-world study, no significant differences in surgical outcomes were observed between the Ahmed glaucoma valve and the Baerveldt glaucoma implant.

The Relationship Between Vision-related Quality of Life and Visual Function in Glaucoma Patients.

The VFI showed a marginally better correlation than MD. Assessment of VFI in the worse eye may provide useful information regarding vision-related QOL in glaucoma patients.
