Association of Long-term Ambient Black Carbon Exposure and Oxidative Stress Allelic Variants With Intraocular Pressure in Older Men

JAMA ophthalmology, 2019
Importance Elevated intraocular pressure is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Environmental air pollution has been suggested as a potential contributor to elevated intraocular pressure; however, no ...

Intraocular pressure during robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: a prospective observational study

Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2021
Background and objectives: Although previous reports have shown intraocular pressure changes during robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy, they did not discuss the time course of changes or the timing of the largest change.

Evaluation of filtering blebs using the ‘Wuerzburg bleb classification score’ compared to clinical findings

BMC Ophthalmology, 2012
Background To determine the agreement between intraocular pressure and the ‘Wuerzburg bleb classification score’, as well as between single items of the score and intraocular pressure. Interobserver variability was analyzed.

A Case of Cyclodialysis after Microhook Trabeculotomy Treated with Vitreous Surgery

Case Reports in Ophthalmology, 2021
We report a case of cyclodialysis with decreased visual acuity after microhook trabeculotomy (mTLO) successfully treated by vitreous surgery. A 41-year-old man had been medically treated for primary open-angle glaucoma in both eyes.
