Contemporary Approach to Narrow Angles

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Among all glaucoma types, primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) affects approximately 23 million people worldwide, and is responsible for 50% of glaucoma-related blindness, highlighting ...

Current Medical Therapy and Future Trends in the Management of Glaucoma Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells and their axons. Lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) is currently the only proven treatment strategy for glaucoma.

Assessing Effects of Riboflavin/UV‐A Cross‐Linking on Aqueous Outflow Facility, Corneal Biomechanics and Their Association With Intraocular Pressure

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates that UV cross‐linking (CXL) reduces outflow facility while increasing corneal elasticity across IOP levels of 20–40 mmHg, measured using direct manometry and non‐contact optical coherence elastography. These results highlight both parameters as potential indicators for evaluating CXL effectiveness and monitoring keratoconus ...

Bridging the Gap Between Training and Reality: A Dental Scientist Trainee Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dental schools stand at a crossroads. While research drives clinical innovation and improves patient outcomes, the pipeline for training future dentist‐scientists remains underdeveloped. Programs such as DDS/DMD‐PhD pathways and NIDCR‐supported initiatives aim to integrate scientific inquiry with clinical training.

Comparative Study of Accommodative Function and Binocular Vision in Patients With Primary Angle‐Closure Disease

open access: yesThe 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 ...
