Validation of a Head-mounted Virtual Reality Visual Field Screening Device.

While the CFA did not reliably identify deficits that matched the HFA, it was moderately effective at identifying glaucoma subjects.

Changes in Anterior Segment Morphology and Predictors of Angle Widening after Laser Iridotomy in South Indian Eyes.

In a South Indian population with PACS or PAC/PACG, LPI results in significant anterior chamber angle widening seen on both ASOCT and gonioscopy, although some degree of persistent iridotrabecular contact was present in approximately half…

The Impact of COVID-19 on Individuals Across the Spectrum of Visual Impairment.

The pandemic might have had a disproportionate impact on the visually impaired, and evidence-based assessments of COVID-19 health outcomes in this population are warranted.

Comparison of New Visual Disturbances after Superior versus Nasal/Temporal Laser Peripheral Iridotomy: A Prospective Randomized Trial.

Laser peripheral iridotomy likely is safe with respect to visual dysphotopsias regardless of location, LPI size, and amount of laser energy used.

Evaluation of Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma Susceptibility Loci in Patients with Early Stages of Angle-Closure Disease.

In this study, 2 of 8 PACG-associated loci were associated significantly with PACS status, the earliest stage in the angle-closure glaucoma disease course.

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.

Resolution of Visual Dysphotopsias after Laser Iridotomy: Six-Month Follow-up.

Diagnostic Performance of the Offline Medios Artificial Intelligence for Glaucoma Detection in a Rural Tele-Ophthalmology Setting.

Medios offline AI exhibited promising sensitivity and specificity in detecting referable glaucoma from remote vision centers in southern India when compared with teleophthalmologists.

The Aravind Pseudoexfoliation Study: 5-Year Postoperative Results. The Effect of Intraocular Lens Choice and Capsular Tension Rings.

In a large-scale, long-term, prospective comparative study of cataract surgery in eyes with uncomplicated PEX, the risks of IOL decentration and PCO were low and comparable to that in control subjects.

The Impact of Routinely Measuring IOP in Younger Adults to Screen for Glaucoma in a Large Eye Hospital.

One of every 535 young adults screened had both IOP >21 mm Hg and angle closure, OHT, secondary raised IOP or glaucoma.

The Heritability of Primary Angle Closure Anatomic Traits and Predictors of Angle Closure in South Indian Siblings.

Iris, anterior chamber, and lens parameters may be heritable whereas angle parameters were not.

Assessment of Reasons for Presentation in New Primary Glaucoma Patients and Identification of Risk Factors for Late Presentation.

In a South Indian population, absence of work and rural residence was associated with advanced glaucoma at presentation. The population in whom these risk factors are common should be targeted for screening and outreach.

Outcomes and Reasons for Late Presentation of Lens Induced Glaucoma: A Prospective Study.

Nonfinancial causes, including good vision in the fellow eye and lack of escort, were the major determinants of late presentation.

An Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Timolol Maleate 0.5% Microdrops Administered with the Nanodropper.

Timolol microdrops appear to be as effective in ocular hypotensive action as conventional drops with a slightly attenuated effect on resting HR and BP.

Corneal Endothelium Changes 6 Months after Laser Peripheral Iridotomy: Prospective Study.

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

Letter to the Editor: Glaucoma Surgery During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Italy: How Novel Coronavirus Has Changed the Surgical Management of Glaucoma Patients.

Response to: The Impact of Routinely Measuring IOP in Younger Adults to Screen for Glaucoma in a Large Eye Hospital.

Family Screening in Glaucoma: A Scoping Review.

Over 30% of relatives of glaucoma patients have or are suspected of having glaucoma, with prevalence varying by relationship. Direct contact with relatives improves screening response rates, suggesting targeted family screening is clinically relevant for early detection.

Angle Closure Phenotypes in Siblings of Patients at Different Stages of Angle Closure.
