A large proportion of individuals screened required ophthalmic services, particularly those who were older and less well educated.

Evaluation of Angle Closure as a Risk Factor for Reduced Corneal Endothelial Cell Density.

In untreated eyes, only mild, clinically insignificant decrement in ECD was noted with angle closure.

Predictors of Receiving Keratoplasty for Keratoconus.

This analysis of a large sample of patients with KCN reveals previously unidentified risk factors associated with receiving keratoplasty including Leber congenital amaurosis, depression, and diabetes.

Patient Acceptance of Sustained Glaucoma Treatment Strategies.

Most glaucoma patients considered sustained drug-delivery modalities acceptable alternatives to IOP-lowering eye drops, but only when they were said to obviate surgery or demonstrate greater efficacy than eye drops.

Impact of the Ability to Divide Attention on Reading Performance in Glaucoma.

Decreased ability to divide attention, indicated by lower BTA scores, is associated with slower reading speeds in glaucoma with reduced CS and VF defects.

Association of an Electronic Health Record-Linked Glaucoma Medical Reminder With Patient Satisfaction.

Electronic health records-linked reminders had good uptake and were well received among patients at a tertiary glaucoma clinic.
