Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation: Is It Important? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmic and Vision Research, 2018
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for the development and progression of glaucoma. Previous prospective, randomized, long-term studies have demonstrated the strength of IOP reduction in slowing the progression of disease.

Systems genetics identifies a role for Cacna2d1 regulation in elevated intraocular pressure and glaucoma susceptibility [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Glaucoma is a multi-factorial blinding disease in which genetic factors play an important role. Elevated intraocular pressure is a highly heritable risk factor for primary open angle glaucoma and currently the only target for glaucoma therapy.

Selective laser trabeculoplasty as adjunctive treatment in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma patients [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2022
Introduction/Objective. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is characterized by abnormal production and accumulation of fibrillar, white-gray, “dandruff-like” material in almost all ocular structures. The aim of this study was to examine effect of selective laser

Wireless theranostic smart contact lens for monitoring and control of intraocular pressure in glaucoma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Glaucoma is one of the irreversible ocular diseases that can cause vision loss in some serious cases. Although Triggerfish has been commercialized for monitoring intraocular pressure in glaucoma, there is no smart contact lens to monitor intraocular ...

Smart soft contact lenses for continuous 24-hour monitoring of intraocular pressure in glaucoma care

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Continuous monitoring of intraocular pressure, particularly during sleep, remains a grand challenge in glaucoma care. Here we introduce a class of smart soft contact lenses, enabling the continuous 24-hour monitoring of intraocular pressure, even during ...
