Transscleral Diode Laser Cyclophotocoagulation: A Comparison of Slow Coagulation and Standard Coagulation Techniques.

In this case series, slow coagulation TSCPC and standard pop-titrated TSCPC resulted in similar VA and IOP outcomes in the treatment of glaucomatous eyes.

Risk Factors for Complications and Failure after Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy in a Young Cohort.

Eyes that received postoperative corticosteroids were more likely to experience an IOP spike complication than those that received postoperative NSAIDs alone, which may suggest corticosteroid-mediated outflow obstruction distal to the trabecular meshwork.

International Study of Childhood Glaucoma.

The most common diagnoses in this international study of children with newly diagnosed glaucoma in order of frequency were PCG, glaucoma after congenital idiopathic cataract surgery, and glaucoma associated with trauma.

Predictors of Neovascular Glaucoma in Central Retinal Vein Occlusion.

Safety and Efficacy of Diode Laser Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation in Eyes With Good Visual Acuity.

TSCPC demonstrates a strong reduction in IOP and glaucoma medication use.

Factors Associated With Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy (GATT) Complications and Failure in Children.

A total of 74 eyes of 57 patients were included (mean age, 7.1 years).

Intraocular Pressure Changes Following Stand-Alone Phacoemulsification: An IRISRegistry Analysis.

Eyes both with and without glaucoma that underwent stand-alone phacoemulsification had a significant decrease in IOP through the 90-day postoperative period compared to baseline and phakic fellow eyes.

Intraocular Pressure Spike Following Stand-Alone Phacoemulsification in the IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight).

Higher baseline IOP, male sex, glaucoma, Black race, older age, and complex cataract coding were associated with early postoperative IOP spike, whereas diabetes and postoperative aphakia were protective against a spike after stand-alone phacoemulsification.

Risk Factors for Glaucoma Drainage Device Failure and Complication in the Pediatric Population.

Although GDD implantation in children is relatively safe and effective, these data should be interpreted in the context of children's relative longevity.

Predictors of Neovascular Glaucoma in Central Retinal Vein Occlusion.

Risk factors for NVG development included history of systemic hypertension, worse visual acuity on presentation, and RAPD on presentation.

Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRISRegistry 1-Year Composite Outcome Analysis with Comparisons to the Randomized Controlled Trial.

Our results were different from those in the TVT RCT. Possible reasons include non-Baerveldt tubes, greater severity among tube eyes, and practice patterns that reflect real-world data, which are different than those in RCTs.

Rates of RNFL Thinning in Patients with Suspected or Confirmed Glaucoma Receiving Unilateral Intravitreal Injections for Exudative AMD.

Among exudative AMD patients with glaucoma or suspected of having glaucoma, the rate of RNFL thinning in eyes receiving intravitreal injections did not significantly differ from that of fellow uninjected eyes.

The Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRIS® Registry Study: Cohort Selection and Follow-up and Comparisons to the Randomized Controlled Trial.

The TVT IRIS Registry cohort had several significant treatment group differences at baseline, whereas there had been none in the TVT RCT cohort.

Factors Associated With Favorable Laser Trabeculoplasty Response: IRIS Registry Analysis.

Lower baseline IOP, angle recession, uveitis, and aphakia were associated with increased odds of nonresponse. Future studies that analyze LTP responder survival and implementation lag would facilitate resource optimization in glaucoma therapy.

Outcomes of Glaucoma Reoperations in the Primary Tube Versus Trabeculectomy Study.

No significant difference in the rate of reoperation for glaucoma was observed after tube shunt implantation and trabeculectomy with MMC in the PTVT Study.

Factors Associated With Laser Trabeculoplasty Response Duration: Analysis of a Large Clinical Database (IRIS Registry).

Angle recession and uveitis increase the risk of LTP failure. LPT may be effective in prolonging medication-free IOP-control in some patients.

Comparison of Outcomes From Delayed-Onset Bleb-Related Endophthalmitis Treated With Pars Plana Vitrectomy Versus Vitreous Biopsy.

In eyes with delayed-onset BRE, isolated organisms, visual outcomes, and IOP control were similar after initial PPV compared with TI.

Scheimpflug Corneal Tomography Anterior Chamber Depth in Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty Recipients.

Smaller baseline preoperative Scheimpflug ACD measurement may be a possible predictor of the need for repeat DSEK. Our study found that Scheimpflug ACD decreases with subsequent DSEK failure.

Tube Versus Trabeculectomy IRIS Registry Study: 1-Year Secondary Treatment Outcomes.

The TVTtube and trabeculectomy groups had comparable 1-year IOP reduction, although trabeculectomy eyes used fewer glaucoma medications.

Glaucoma Cascade Screening in a High Risk Afro-Caribbean Haitian Population: A Pilot Study.

Glaucoma cascade screening of Haitian JOAG patients' FDRs revealed that 30.8% had suspected or manifest glaucoma. Future efforts centered on provider-initiated recruitment and improving public glaucoma awareness and education may increase screening participation.

Neuro-ophthalmic Disease in Pediatric Glaucoma Practice.

Patients referred from pediatric glaucoma to neuro-ophthalmology often have nonglaucomatous disease requiring subspecialty evaluation and neuroimaging. Neuroimaging in this cohort is high yield for uncovering intracranial pathology.

Early Predictors of Long-term Outcomes in Childhood Glaucoma.

In this pilot study of a modest size cohort, the presence of nystagmus, ASD or failed angle surgery early in the course of infantile-onset glaucoma management predicted poor final visual outcome, whereas failed angle surgery and presence of MO predicted poor final IOP control.

Glaucoma Tube Outcomes with and without Anti-VEGF in Patients with Age-related Macular Degeneration.

Exposure to anti-VEGF may influence postoperative wound healing and capsule formation which may improve glaucoma tube surgical outcomes.

Re: Nudleman et al.: Glaucoma after lens-sparing vitrectomy for advanced retinopathy of prematurity (Ophthalmology. 2018;125:671-675).

Intraocular Pressure after Phacoemulsification with Retained Lens Fragments in the IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight).

The initial IOP elevation after phacoemulsification resulting in RLFs is higher than after standard cataract surgery because of an increased incidence of IOP spike.

Risk Factors for Flat Anterior Chamber Requiring Intervention After Glaucoma Drainage Implant: A Retrospective Case-Controlled Study.

Risk factors for flat anterior chamber were older age, oral CAIs at tube opening, and higher IOP before tube opening.

Professional Quality of Life and Associated Factors Among Pediatric Glaucoma Providers.

Pediatric glaucoma providers derive a high level of professional satisfaction from their work, though many report moderate burnout and STS.
