Narrative Review of Topiramate: Clinical Uses and Pharmacological Considerations
AbstractDue to the diverse mechanisms of action of antiseizure drugs, there has been a rise in prescriptions of these drugs for non-epileptic pathologies. One drug that is now being used for a variety of conditions is topiramate. This is a narrative review that used PubMed, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, and ScienceDirect to review literature on the clinical and pharmacologic properties of topiramate. Topiramate is a commonly prescribed second-generation antiseizure drug. The drug works through multiple pathways to prevent seizures. In this regard, topiramate blocks sodium and calcium voltage-gated channels, inhibits glutamate r...

Recognizing National Glaucoma Awareness Month
January was National Glaucoma Awareness Month and provided us an opportunity to spread the word and honor the millions of patients around the world who are impacted by this debilitating disease. Glaucoma refers to a group of eye diseases that can cause vision loss or blindness due to damage of the optic nerve. It is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness in the United States. High intraocular pressure (IOP) is a common risk factor for glaucoma, which over time causes stress on the optic nerve and can lead to gradual vision loss. While there currently is no available cure, the condition can be treated and ...

Use of a Novel Microshunt in Refractory Childhood Glaucoma: Initial Experience in a Compassionate Use/Early Access Cohort
In patients with refractory childhood glaucoma, treatment options include trabeculectomy or large glaucoma drainage devices (GDDs) with attendant short- and long-term risks. A novel polymer-based microshunt is under review by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in adults. The device is attractive for children given the long-term stability of the polymer and the small conjunctival incision required for implantation. This early clinical series explores the safety and efficacy of this device in patients with refractory childhood glaucoma who would otherwise undergo trabeculectomy or implantation of a GDD.

Safety profile of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery
This article reviews the safety profile of trabecular meshwork/Schlemm's canal-based, subconjunctival, and suprachoroidal minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).
Recent findings
Prospective randomized clinical trials and metaanalyses published during the 2019–2020 review period provided important data regarding the safety profile of trabecular meshwork/Schlemm's canal-based MIGS. Transient hyphema and intraocular pressure spikes are among the most common complications associated with this category of MIGS, but more serious adverse events such as cyclodialysis cleft formation may also occur. Trabecular bypass m...

Dorzolamide/Timolol Fixed Combination: Learning from the Past and Looking Toward the Future
AbstractThe key clinical attributes of preserved dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination (DTFC) and the emerging potential of preservative-free (PF) DTFC are reviewed with published evidence and clinical experience. The indications and role of DTFC in current glaucoma management are critically discussed. Preserved DTFC became the first intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering fixed combination (FC) approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and remains one of most commonly used medications worldwide. The pharmacological properties of DTFC reflect those of its two time-tested constituents, i.e., the carbonic anhydrase i...

Reticular Epithelial Edema: An Uncommon Side Effect of ROCK/NET Inhibitor Netarsudil
We report a patient with a history of a partially decompensated Descemet’s stripping endothelial keratoplasty who develops reticular epithelial corneal edema after starting netarsudil. This unique pattern of edema may present in the setting of preexisting endothelial cell dysfunction when netarsudil is used, a complication not noted in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) trials.

Ginkgo Biloba Extract in Ophthalmic and Systemic Disease, With a Focus on Normal-Tension Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative eye disease that results in retinal ganglion cell loss and ultimately loss of vision. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most common known risk factor for retinal ganglion cell damage and visual field loss, and the only modifiable risk factor proven to reduce the development and progression of glaucoma. This has greatly influenced our approach and assessment in terms of diagnosis and treatment. However, as many as ≥50% of patients with progressive vision loss from primary open angle glaucoma without IOP elevation (≤22 mm Hg) have been reported in the United States and Canada; 90%...
