The Relationship Between Quality of Life and Adherence to Medication in Glaucoma Patients in Singapore
Conclusions: The full-adherence rate is low among glaucoma patients. Having less belief in the need for and more concerns about their medication are the 2 factors associated with nonadherence. In the future, effective strategies should be explored to improve patients’ beliefs. Nonadherence has an association with decreased quality of life. Strategies to improve adherence will need to deal with these areas.

Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implantation for Uveitic Glaucoma Secondary to Behçet Disease
Conclusions: For the management of uveitic glaucoma associated with BD, AGV implantation is a successful method for glaucoma control but requires additional surgical interventions for high early hypotony rates.

Applicability of ISNT and IST rules to the retinal nerve fibre layer using spectral domain optical coherence tomography in early glaucoma
Conclusions Even though useful during ophthalmoscopy, ISNT and IST rules by themselves don't clearly distinguish normal eyes from those with glaucoma when applied to the quadrant values on RNFL on SD-OCT examination.

Detection of Glaucoma and Its Association With Diabetic Retinopathy in a Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Program
Conclusion: The overall prevalence of glaucoma in this diabetic population, based on finding increased cupping of optic disc in a teleretinal screening program was 1.8% (95% confidence interval, 1.0-3.0).

Resident surgical training in glaucoma
Purpose of review: The review provides an overview of the training of ophthalmology residents to perform glaucoma surgery. Recent findings: Data from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education indicate that the average number of glaucoma surgeries performed by graduating ophthalmology residents has remained stable over the past 5 years. However, a proportional increase in shunting procedures and decrease in filtering procedures has occurred during this time period. The existing medical literature has not identified any differences in the safety and efficacy of glaucoma procedures performed by residents compa...

Early Glaucoma Screening Using the Ibopamine Provocative Test
Conclusions: The ibopamine test showed an adequate diagnostic performance to detect individuals at increased risk of glaucoma in a very early stage of the disease. While further studies are required, the provocative ibopamine test for the diagnosis of early glaucoma is promissory.

Why Patients With Glaucoma Lose Vision: The Patient Perspective
Conclusions: These focus groups brought up many issues surrounding barriers to glaucoma treatment, perceived susceptibility to glaucoma, perceived benefits to treatment, and the emotional response to living with glaucoma. There is a need to create a more comprehensive chronic disease management approach for patients with glaucoma to address both the concrete and emotional issues identified in these focus group discussions.

Ex-PRESS Miniature Glaucoma Shunt Versus Ahmed Glaucoma Valve in the Surgical Treatment of Glaucoma in Pseudophakic Patients
Conclusions: AGV compared with Ex-PRESS shunt, had a higher success rate for secondary surgeries but not primary surgeries, in patients with prior clear corneal phacoemulsification. The AGV surgery also had a lower overall glaucoma reoperation rate.

Prevalence and Clinical Characteristics of Childhood Glaucoma at a Tertiary Care Children’s Hospital
Precis: Glaucoma suspect was the most prevalent category in this study followed by glaucoma associated with acquired ocular anomaly and juvenile open-angle glaucoma. Primary congenital glaucoma was diagnosed in only 3% of the population studied. Purpose: To describe the prevalence and clinical characteristics of childhood glaucoma diagnosed over a 10-year period among patients aged 18 years or below who were seen at a tertiary care children’s hospital using the new Childhood Glaucoma Research Network classification system. Methods: Medical records of all patients aged 18 years or below (n=108) who were diagnosed ...

Effects of Intravitreal Anti-VEGF Therapy on Glaucoma-like Progression in Susceptible Eyes
Conclusions: Intravitreal injections were associated with accelerated functional and structural glaucoma-like change in susceptible eyes. Clinicians should assess the need for glaucoma medications or other interventions over the course of anti-VEGF therapy.

Ahmed Versus Baerveldt Glaucoma Drainage Device in Uveitic Glaucoma: A Retrospective Comparative Study
Conclusions: Higher complete success rate and significantly greater reduction in mean IOP and number of medications were observed in the Baerveldt group, but with a higher rate of complications including hypotony.
