Micropulse Glaucoma Procedure Response Can Predict Retreatment Success
Patients who experience IOP-lowering with micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation are likely to have success with a second treatment, a study explains.
Primary open-angle glaucoma
Disc Hemorrhages Increase Vessel Density Loss in Glaucomatous Eyes
Researchers say disc hemorrhage is an independent predictor of faster vessel density loss in patients with primary open angle glaucoma.
Glaucoma Does Not Preclude Endocyclophotocoagulation Plus Phacoemulsification
Even without a MIGS device, surgery-naive patients who underwent phaco-ECP can experience an IOP drop of 26%, a report suggests.
Peripheral Kinetic Perimetry Assists in Early Detection of Glaucoma
Combining peripheral kinetic visual field testing with central static perimetry improves early glaucomatous detection.
Higher Number of Postoperative IVIs may Improve Glaucoma Surgery Success
For patients with glaucoma and retinovascular disease, those who received 7 or more intravitreal injections after glaucoma surgery had improved rates of success, a study shows.
Microshunt With or Without OCM Implantation Provides Similar Results
The two device types demonstrated equal reductions in IOP and medication use.
Two-Year Study Shows Real-World Effects of Latanoprostene Bunod
More than half of patients who used the drug exhibited statistically significant overall and clinically meaningful IOP reductions.
One in 10 Return to Operating Room Within 6 Months of Tube Shunt Surgery
Elevated IOP refractory to medical therapy was the most common postoperative complication for both nonvalved and valved tube shunt surgeries.
Capsule Revision and Secondary Aqueous Shunt Procedure Lowers IOP
A case study shows the effect of a capsule revision after failed valved aqueous implant and
concurrent placement of a nonvalved implant.
