Current surgical methods for advanced glaucoma [PDF]
Orvosi Hetilap, 2013 The author summarizes the most effective types of glaucoma surgery in advanced glaucoma. In high pressure advanced glaucoma a low target intraocular pressure is to be set. The most effective method of reaching this target pressure level is mitomycin C trabeculectomy combined with effective pre- and postoperative antiinflammatory treatment. However, in

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...
