Study: Psychological Stress Elevates IOP, Even in Healthy Individuals
Research links an increase in social stressors, such as anxiety and depression, with elevations in intraocular pressure.
Micropulse Cyclophotocoagulation Lowers IOP, But May Lead to Persistent Complications
Nearly half of patients required additional IOP-lowering intervention in a study.
Study Advocates Mindfulness Meditation to Moderate Intraocular Pressure
A study shows an association between the practice and reduced intraocular pressures as well as changes in trabecular meshwork gene expression in glaucoma.
Optic Nerve Head Prelaminar Schisis Possible Sign of Glaucomatous Damage
OCT imaging can help identify this potential biomarker of disease progression.
Researchers Show Parameters for Distinguishing Pupillary Block from Plateau Iris Configuration
Using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), researchers point to 2 parameters that most reliably determine pupillary block vs. plateau iris configuration.
Slight Vessel Density Changes, Measured on OCT-A, Can Foretell Juvenile Ocular Hypertension
Researchers used OCT-A to compare the vessel density in the radial peripapillary capillaries in patients with and without juvenile ocular hypertension.
Increased Travel Distances Are A Barrier To Postoperative Glaucoma Care, Study Shows
Researchers show that a patient’s distance from an eye clinic increases their odds being lost to follow-up.
Combined Phaco, Trabeculectomy, Endoscopic Cyclophotocoagulation Effectively Lowers IOP
Researchers reviewed patients who underwent combined phacoemulsification, ab-interno trabeculectomy, and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation.
Optic Disc Phenotypes Show Specific Gaps in Visual Fields, Study Finds
Researchers use glaucomatous optic disc phenotypes to determine who can best benefit from being tested with both 10-2 and 24-2 visual fields.
