Myopia could be mistaken for glaucoma in some
April 30th 2007A study published in the March issue of Ophthalmology, has found that many young and middle-aged people of Chinese ancestry who are told they have glaucoma may actually be misdiagnosed. These patients who do not show disease progression may, in fact, have glaucoma-like symptoms caused by myopia.
Laserable and releasable sutures preferable after trabeculectomy
April 30th 2007Laser suture lysis or releasable suture techniques can be a preferable alternative to permanent sutures for closing scleral flaps in primary trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC) in uncomplicated glaucoma, according to a study published in the March issue of Journal of Glaucoma.
What's the best way to detect glaucoma?
March 5th 2007GDx variable cornea compensation with scanning laser polarimetry (SLP-VCC), Heidelberg retina tomography (HRT) confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (CSLO) and stereoscopic optic nerve head (ONH) photographs may all be useful in assisting clinicians to diagnose glaucoma.
Glaucoma implants don't have staying power
March 1st 2007The Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) and the Molteno single plate implant (MSPI) may provide good early and intermediate-term control of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with neovascular glaucoma (NVG), but do not achieve the same success when implanted for long periods.
SLT comparable with glaucoma therapy
March 1st 2007Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is comparable to medical treatment as the initial therapy for open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension, according to results of a study presented at the American Academy of Ophthalmology annual meeting, last year in Las Vegas.
Paediatric glaucoma: how should we be treating it?
September 1st 2006The management of paediatric glaucoma is primarily surgical. In the literature, goniotomy and trabeculotomy, despite success rates of only 40-90%, are still the initial surgical procedures of choice for most cases of primary congenital glaucoma. In the case of secondary glaucomas associated with conditions such as aphakia, aniridia, anterior segment dysgenesis and Sturge-Weber syndrome, the success rates of goniotomy or trabeculotomy are much lower.
IDK: the future of glaucoma surgery?
July 1st 2006The challenge of glaucoma surgery is not only to create a canal within the anterior chamber that acts as a pressure alleviator, it is to ensure that the canal is stable, will not close and, preferably, will alleviate intraocular pressure (IOP) to such an extent that medication is either no longer necessary or the frequency of dosing is minimized. This is the goal of every glaucoma surgeon and one that, unfortunately, is often not achieved, for a number of reasons.
Can we predict neovascular complications?
June 1st 2006Many ophthalmic disorders give rise to neovascularization of the iris and neovascular glaucoma. Almost all of these disorders are characterized by retinal hypoxia and retinal capillary nonperfusion, the same factors involved in the development of retinal neovascularization. One of the most common causes is central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), which is a visually disabling disease that is second in prevalence only to diabetic retinopathy.
