Reinterventions After PreserFlo Implantation: A Report on Results in Clinical Practice
Background The PreserFlo MicroShunt is an effective surgical procedure for intraocular pressure (IOP) control in glaucoma. This study focuses on the rate of reinterventions after PreserFlo implantation, as well as exploring possible risk factors for reintervention. Methods This retrospective study included all patients undergoing PreserFlo implantation

Non-Viral Gene Therapy in Trabecular Meshwork Cells to Prevent Fibrosis in Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery [PDF]
The primary cause of failure for minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) is fibrosis in the trabecular meshwork (TM) that regulates the outflow of aqueous humour, and no anti-fibrotic drug is available for intraocular use in MIGS.

Case report: Double implantation of the iStent inject in a high myope
The iStent inject is an ab-interno trabecular microbypass stent used in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma. Intraoperative complications are uncommon. However, we present the first reported case of simultaneous double-stent implantation, occurring in a 62-year-old Chinese male with high myopia and normal-tension glaucoma. Following an initial

Pathological Mechanism and Clinical Therapy Progress of Schlemm’s Canal
Schlemm’s canal (SC) is a small circular canal in the deep part of the sclera at the junction of the sclera and cornea. As an integral component of the aqueous humor outflow, its structure and function are essential in regulating intraocular pressure (IOP).

Communication models, translation, and fidelity [PDF]
The fact that people regularly translate from one language to another or-as the American Bible Society (ABS) New Media Translations Project has done-from one medium to another, may seem to make it easier to evaluate those translations.
