More than half of patients who used the drug exhibited statistically significant overall and clinically meaningful IOP reductions.
Circadian IOP Steady After Cataract Surgery With High-Frequency Deep Sclerotomy
While the combined approach does reduce intraocular pressures, circadian rhythm cannot be changed by the surgery.
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 andconcurrent placement of a nonvalved implant.

People with glaucoma and preserved central vision still had more difficulty reading than similarly aged controls.
Preoperative Testing Ineffective in Cataract Surgery
Postoperative complications were not linked with cataract versus noncataract surgery.
Higher Treated IOP Linked With Higher Rates of Visual Field Loss
The progression was especially noticeable in glaucoma suspects and patients with mild glaucoma.

Patients with glaucoma and lower baseline densities appeared to experience a faster rate of RNFL loss.
Keratoplasty Procedure Safe, Even for Those With Complex Comorbidities
Survival rates for graft and endothelial cells 10 years after DSEK are high, even for those with risk factors for graft failure.
Patients With Diabetes and CRAO at Increased Risk of Ocular Neovascularization
Researchers recommend close, monthly monitoring up to 9 months after CRAO.
