TEK gene‐related primary congenital glaucoma: Phenotypic features and mutational spectrum in a Mexican cohort of 10 unrelated families

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 194, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is one of the leading causes of visual damage and blindness, severely affecting the quality of life of affected children. It is characterized by cupping of the optic disc and loss of ganglion cells due to elevated intraocular pressure. While most PCG patients exhibit epiphora, photophobia, and buphthalmos with

Droplet Laplace valve‐enabled glaucoma implant for intraocular pressure management

Droplet, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2024.
A novel droplet‐based valving concept, the droplet Laplace valve (DLV), a three‐dimensional printable moving‐parts‐free microvalve with customizable and consistent threshold valving pressures, has been proposed for effective intraocular pressure management in glaucoma implants. The DLV uses a flow discretization unit comprising a droplet‐forming nozzle

How latanoprost changed glaucoma management

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 102, Issue 2, Page e140-e155, March 2024.
Abstract Glaucoma is currently considered one of the leading causes of severe visual impairment and blindness worldwide. Topical medical therapy represents the treatment of choice for many glaucoma patients. Introduction of latanoprost, 25 years ago, with an entirely new mechanism of action from that of the antiglaucoma drugs used up to that time was a
