Single oral administration of dronabinol increases ocular blood flow in patients with glaucoma

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, primarily driven by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Still, some patients progress despite significant IOP lowering, potentially due to impaired ocular blood flow. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dronabinol, a synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol derivative, on ...

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL glaucoma implant in primary open‐angle and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma eyes after failed glaucoma surgeries

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study assesses the PAUL® glaucoma implant (PGI) in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) after failed glaucoma surgery. Given PEXG's more aggressive nature, limited research exists on PGI outcomes in this subgroup. This study aims to compare PGI's efficacy and safety in both conditions. Methods A

Congenital aniridia: European COST action ANIRIDIA‐NET guidelines for diagnosis, management and care

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital aniridia is a rare ocular disorder affecting the majority of eye structures and can be associated with systemic manifestations. The main visible phenotypic characteristic is the partial or complete absence of the iris; however, foveal hypoplasia is a more frequent and reliable clinical sign. Other ocular comorbidities are associated
