      Reliability of Self-Monitoring of Intraocular Pressure With ... : Journal of Glaucoma - 2 day(s) ago

      e Home2. Patients and Methods: One hundred four patients out of 110 consecutive patients were recruited for this observational cross-sectional study. One randomly selected eye from each patient underwent 6 consecutive IOP measurements with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), iCare IC200, and iCare Home2. Every eye was tested twice with each device, in random order, by an ophthalmologist for GAT and IC200, and by the patient itself for Home2. In addition, central corneal thickness (CCT) has been collected. The reliability of Home2 has been tested by calculating limits of agreement (LoA) between self-measured and physician-measured IOP, using the Bland-Altman analysis. The repeatability of each device has been tested by calculating the limits of repeatability (LoR) with the same method. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to determine the correlation between differences in IOP measurements and CCT. Results: The mean difference between GAT and iCare Home2 was −0.28±1.57 mmHg (P=0.0

      Comparison Between Phacoemulsification-iStent Inject W and... : Journal of Glaucoma - 9 day(s) ago

      Purpose: To compare the 1-year efficacy and safety of phacoemulsification combined with iStent Inject W (phaco/iStent) and phacoemulsification combined with micropulse transscleral laser therapy (phaco/MPTLT). Methods: A retrospective cohort study that included patients with mild-moderate open angle glaucoma (OAG) and cataract who underwent either phaco/iStent or phaco/MPTLT in a tertiary hospital in Singapore between August 1, 2016 and December 31, 2022. The primary outcome measures were cumulative probabilities of failure between the 2 groups, with failure defined as disease progression by ocular coherence tomography (OCT-RNFL) or visual field test (VFT), repeat glaucoma surgery, and inability to maintain intraocular pressure (IOP) lower than preoperative baseline or the use of glaucoma medications for 2 consecutive visits after 1 month postoperatively. In addition, postoperative mean IOP, average number of IOP lowering medications, visual acuity, and complications were analyzed. Res

      Effect of Anti-Inflammatory Regimen on Selective Laser... : Journal of Glaucoma - 11 day(s) ago

      ods: A prospective randomized controlled trial. We included newly diagnosed primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients that underwent a primary SLT session. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups (prednisolone acetate 1%, prednisolone acetate 0.12%, and ketorolac tromethamine 0.5%). After SLT, intraocular pressure (IOP) data were collected at different time points: days 7 and 30, and at 3, 6, and 12 months post-SLT. The main outcome measure was the comparison of success rates (Kaplan-Meier survival analysis) between groups (log-rank test). Results: We included a total of 134 eyes from 134 newly diagnosed POAG patients (mean age: 62.64±13.86 y) with a mean follow-up of 287±104 days. We observed a significant IOP reduction following SLT treatment in all groups at 12 months (baseline IOP 19.57±3.78 vs. final IOP: 14.39±2.29 mm Hg, P<0.001). Patients in the acetate prednisolone 1% group presented higher survival rates (83.7%) comparing with the other groups (prednisolone acetate 0.1

      Intermittent Bleeding From the Iridocorneal Angle and... : Journal of Glaucoma - 14 day(s) ago

      angle recession glaucoma underwent uneventful 360-degree GATT surgery. Results: Two weeks after the surgery, while the reason for the incomplete resolution of hyphema remained unclear, intermittent bleeding from the iridocorneal angle and hemorrhage in the inferior vitreous were observed during the patient’s follow-up examination. Although bleeding was controlled with intravenous tranexamic acid therapy, the patient required pars plana vitrectomy due to the development of ghost cell glaucoma. Despite medical treatment, the patient’s intraocular pressure remained elevated during follow-ups, leading to the decision to perform Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation surgery as a final intervention. At the latest evaluation, the patient’s intraocular pressure was under control without medication. Conclusion: After GATT surgery, the possibility of intermittent bleeding from the iridocorneal angle should be considered if the hyphema persists beyond the expected duration.

      and an ocular axis length of 24.05 mm/24.30 mm. She underwent phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in the right eye (OD), along with goniosynechialysis and microhook ab interno trabeculotomy. Postoperative intraocular pressure was 4–6 mm Hg in the OD. Five months later, SRD was observed temporally and inferiorly to the macula, with increased choroidal thickness. Best-corrected visual acuity at 5 months was (1.2)/(1.2) (right eye [OD]/left eye [OS]), and intraocular pressure was 6 mm Hg/13 mm Hg. CCD in the OD was accompanied by choroidal vessel dilation and choroidal vascular hyperpermeability. Two years and 7 months postsurgery, intraocular pressure spiked to 50–54 mm Hg but settled at 12 mm Hg 1 week later. CCD resolved, and choroidal folds and SRD disappeared, with decreased choroid thickness. Two years and 10 months postoperatively, there was no SRD recurrence at 10 mm Hg on 2 antiglaucoma eye drops, and best-corrected visual acuity remained stable at (1.0)/(1.0).

      optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). Patients and Methods: An observational study was conducted at Ain Shams University, involving 98 eyes from 98 patients, divided into 3 groups. Group 1 included 30 eyes with primary open angle glaucoma, group 2 included 28 normal eyes with physiological cupping [vertical cup/disc ratio 0.6 or more based on structural optical coherence tomography (OCT) and no evidence of glaucoma], and group 3 included 40 age-matched normal eyes (vertical cup/disc ratio ≤0.5). Participants were subjected to ophthalmological examination, structural OCT, and OCTA of the optic disc. Results: Group 1 exhibited significantly lower RPC VD than the other groups (P<0.001), while no significant differences were noted between groups 2 and 3 (P=0.559). Moderate negative correlations were observed between C/D vertical (r=−0.556, P=0.002), and horizontal ratios (r=−0.430, P=020), and RPC VD in glaucomatous eyes across the whole image and its 4 quadrants.

      during blind-spot stimulation. Methods: Two thousand one hundred fifty-three eyes of 1155 glaucoma and glaucoma-suspect patients. All patients underwent a head-mounted perimeter imo test. The imo has an eye tracking system that records eye position during tests and assists the device with stimulating corrected points corresponding to eye movement. All stimulus presentations were classified into 3 groups: (1) fixation loss (FL) stimulus: responded to Heijl-Krakau stimuli; (2) non-FL stimulus: did not respond to Heijl-Krakau stimuli; and (3) total stimuli: all other stimuli except for Heijl-Krakau stimuli. We compared the amount of fixation displacement between the FL, non-FL, and total stimuli by the Mann-Whitney U test. Relationships between the FL and mean deviation (MD), the FL and age were analyzed. Results: The median fixation displacements with the FL, non-FL, and total stimuli were 3.2, 1.4, and 1.5 degrees, respectively. The fixation displacement in the FL stimulus group was gre

Methods: Patient records with glaucoma living in Washington state from a single academic institution (2014–2021) were reviewed. Those with a single visit, an address with no Social Vulnerability Index score, or a diagnosis relating to pre-glaucoma, glaucoma-suspect, or ocular hypertension were excluded. Demographic data, Social Vulnerability Index scores, and the number of visual fields and optical coherence tomography were collected. Patients were classified as meeting testing criteria if they had at least one visual field and optical coherence tomography per year. Logistic regression was used to assess whether sociodemographic factors and Social Vulnerability Index scores were associated with not meeting testing criteria. Results: Three thousand nine hundred seventy-one patients were included: 1470 (37.0%),

Patients and Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed for patients who received bilateral, resident-performed SLT at the University of Chicago from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022 under the supervision of 1 glaucoma surgeon (M.Q.). Patients were included in this analysis if they underwent same-day bilateral 360-degree SLT and had at least 6 months of follow-up available. Data were collected on visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), number of IOP-lowering medications, and complications for up to 2 years after the procedure. Results: There were 48 patients included in this analysis, and the diagnosis was either primary open angle glaucoma (85.4%) or ocular hypertension (14.6%). For patients whose SLT goal was to lower IOP (n=38), the mean baseline IOP in right eyes (OD) was 19.2 mm Hg on 2.1 medications, and in left eyes (OS) was 19.5 mm Hg on 2.1 medications. At the final follow-up (mean 519 d), the mean IOP in the right eyes was 15.8 mm Hg on 2.0 med
