Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer and Macula Ganglion Cell Thickness in Eyes with Primary Angle Closure [PDF]
Decreased thickness of retina nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cells of inner plexifom layer (GLIPL) in patients with glaucoma suspect can represent early detection of retina nerve defect.

The effectiveness of early lens extraction with intraocular lens implantation for the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (EAGLE): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Although primary open-angle glaucoma is more common, primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is more likely to result in irreversible blindness. By 2020, 5·3 million people worldwide will

Canaloplasty in the Treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma: A Review of Patient Selection and Outcomes. [PDF]
Canaloplasty is a relatively new non-penetrating surgery for the reduction of intraocular pressure in patients affected by glaucoma. The technique uses a microcatheter to perform a 360 º cannulation of Schlemm's canal and leaves in place a tension suture
