Application of the Sight Outcomes Research Collaborative Ophthalmology Data Repository for Triaging Patients With Glaucoma and Clinic Appointments During Pandemics Such as COVID-19.

A tool that considers the risk of underlying ophthalmic disease progression from delayed care receipt and the morbidity risk from COVID-19 exposure was developed and implemented, facilitating the triage of upcoming ophthalmic appointments.

Drive-through Intraocular Pressure Checks During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

It is possible to institute a drive-through model of IOP checks for glaucoma patients which is efficient and minimizes the risk of exposure to COVID-19 for patients and staff.

Establishing a Regional Glaucoma Physician Collaborative to Improve Quality of Care.

It is feasible to establish a regional glaucoma physician collaborative to improve standardization of care for patients with newly diagnosed POAG.

Reliability of Intraocular Pressure Measurements in a Low-Contact Drive-Through Setting.

With better optimization of accuracy and reliability of measurements, drive-through tonometry is a promising, high-throughput, low-contact method of measuring IOP.

Baerveldt 250 mm2 Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Eyes With Preexisting Scleral Buckles.

In eyes with preexisting SBs, the Baerveldt 250 mm GDD effectively lowers IOP and reduces the number of glaucoma medications. Complications related to conjunctival dehiscence are not uncommon in these eyes with significantly scarred conjunctiva.

Subsequent Receipt of Interventions for Glaucoma Among a Nationwide Sample of Patients Who Underwent Laser Peripheral Iridotomy.

Most patients undergoing bilateral LPIs received no pre- or post-LPI glaucoma medication-class prescriptions and had no cataract or additional glaucoma surgery within 2 years after LPIs.
