Outcomes of Baerveldt Glaucoma Drainage Devices in Pediatric Eyes
Précis: In children, Baerveldt implants showed 84% success at 1 year, but decreased to 32% at 8 years. Age, race, and glaucoma type were not risk factors for failure. Concurrent intraocular surgery was associated with complications. Purpose: Evaluate success and risk factors for failure and complications of Baerveldt glaucoma implants in children. Methods: Retrospective case series of children who underwent Baerveldt implant placement (2012-2019 by single surgeon) with ≥1 year follow-up. Ocular examination and surgical details were collected. Failure defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) 21 mm Hg f...

Repeatability of Corneal Hysteresis Measurements in Glaucoma Patients During Routine Follow Up and After Cataract Surgery
Conclusion: CH measurements in glaucoma patients were repeatable over a 6-month period during routine follow up or following cataract surgery. These findings suggest that the intraocular pressure reduction following cataract surgery is unlikely to be because of a change in this biomechanical property.

Peripapillary and Macular Vascular Density in Patients With Preperimetric and Early Primary Open Angle Glaucoma
Précis: Decreased circumpapillary vascular density (cpVD) and average retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness were detected at different locations in eyes with preperimetric glaucoma (PPG). Although RNFL loss was more prominent in preperimetric eyes, in early glaucoma, both cpVD and RNFL thickness showed comparable diagnostic ability. Purpose: To evaluate changes in circumpapillary and macular vascular density and investigate correlations between vascular and structural parameters in PPG and early glaucoma. Method: This cross-sectional study included a total of 27 patients with PPG in 1 eye and early ...

Real-World Outcomes of Glaucoma Filtration Surgery Using Electronic Health Records: An Informatics Study
Précis: Utilizing an automated pipeline for data extraction from electronic health records provides real-world information on the success of various glaucoma procedures, with tube shunt implantation associated with increased failure rates compared with trabeculectomy. Background: We aimed to evaluate the long-term survival of glaucoma surgeries using an automated pipeline for extraction of outcomes from electronic health records. Methods: A retrospective observational study from a single academic center. Patients undergoing trabeculectomy, Ex-PRESS shunt, Baerveldt, and Ahmed tube shunt insertion from 20...

Comparative Evaluation of Rebound and Perkins Tonometers in Pediatric Glaucoma With Varied Corneal Characteristics
Precis: Icare tonometer overestimated intraocular pressure (IOP) as compared with Perkins and this variation was higher in IOP>19 mm Hg and corneal opacity in patients with pediatric glaucoma. Purpose: To compare the IOP measured by Icare ic200 with Perkins tonometer in pediatric glaucoma with different corneal characteristics. Methods: Patients of pediatric glaucoma posted for routine examination under anesthesia, age below 12 years were enrolled. All patients underwent IOP measurement with Perkins and Icare ic200 tonometer by the same observer. Basic demographic data and other relevant clinical data...

Depression and Severity of Glaucoma Among Older Adults in Urban and Suburban Areas
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of depression among patients with POAG and examine the relationship between depression and the severity of POAG in older adults. Materials and Methods: Three hundred and sixty patients with POAG aged 60 years or above were recruited from 2 tertiary centers located in an urban and suburban area. The participants were stratified according to the severity of their glaucoma based on the scores from the modified Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS) to mild, moderate, severe, and end stage. Face-to-face interviews were performed using the Malay Version Geriatric Depressi...

Evaluation of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer, Ganglion Cell-Inner Plexiform Layer, and Optic Nerve Head in Glaucoma Suspects With Varying Myopia
Précis: Myopic glaucoma suspects, particularly with high myopia, experience thinning of nontemporal parameters of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL), without change in optic nerve head (ONH) parameters. Purpose: The aim was to assess the effect of myopia on RNFL, GCIPL, and ONH parameters in glaucoma suspects. Materials and Methods: Seventy-six eyes of glaucoma suspects studied with Cirrus high definition optical coherence tomography were divided into low (n=27), moderate (n=25), and high myopia (n=24) groups.

An Infectious Cause of Congenital Pupillary-Iris-Lens Membrane With Secondary Angle Closure Glaucoma in an Infant
Conclusion: This condition is a rare entity of unknown etiology with an increased risk of glaucoma and visual loss. A multidisciplinary approach is needed for the management of these eyes. Infectious associations with these membranes should be ruled out by an aqueous tap with polymerase chain reaction and a close postoperative follow-up is mandatory.
