The effectiveness of early lens extraction with intraocular lens implantation for the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (EAGLE): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Although primary open-angle glaucoma is more common, primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is more likely to result in irreversible blindness. By 2020, 5·3 million people worldwide will

Higher risk and earlier onset glaucoma in Cushing's syndrome

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page e176-e182, May 2025.
Abstract Purpose Glaucoma incidence in patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) has never been established. We aim to assess the risk for glaucoma among CS patients compared to controls and determine the age of disease onset. Methods A nationwide retrospective matched‐cohort study of patients with endogenous CS diagnosed between 2000 and 2023 ...

The role of the local and general somatic factors for the open-angle glaucoma development in patients with eye manifestations of pseudoexfoliation syndrome

Офтальмохирургия, 2013
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) is one of the best known triggers of glaucoma. The development of the open-angle glaucoma only in some patients with the PEX with definite local and general risk factors requires a further research. Purpose.

Protein misfolding and mitochondrial dysfunction in glaucoma

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Elevated intraocular pressure caused by restricted outflow of the aqueous humor leads to the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons.

Identification of primary angle-closure on AS-OCT images with Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Primary angle-closure disease (PACD) is a severe retinal disease, which might cause irreversible vision loss. In clinic, accurate identification of angle-closure and localization of the scleral spur's position on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is essential for the diagnosis of PACD.
