Single oral administration of dronabinol increases ocular blood flow in patients with glaucoma

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, primarily driven by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Still, some patients progress despite significant IOP lowering, potentially due to impaired ocular blood flow. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dronabinol, a synthetic tetrahydrocannabinol derivative, on ...

A large multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies novel genetic loci for intraocular pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. IOP heritability has been estimated to up to 67%, and to date only 11 IOP loci have been reported, accounting for 1.5% of IOP variability.

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL glaucoma implant in primary open‐angle and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma eyes after failed glaucoma surgeries

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study assesses the PAUL® glaucoma implant (PGI) in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) after failed glaucoma surgery. Given PEXG's more aggressive nature, limited research exists on PGI outcomes in this subgroup. This study aims to compare PGI's efficacy and safety in both conditions. Methods A

Assessment of polygenic effects links primary open-angle glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are leading causes of irreversible blindness. Several loci have been mapped using genome-wide association studies.

Threat to fixation and vision‐related quality of life in patients with open‐angle glaucoma

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We aimed to investigate the association between overlapping threat to fixation (TTF) and vision‐related quality of life (VRQoL) in patients with manifest open‐angle glaucoma (OAG). Methods Overall, 316 patients with manifest OAG were recruited from the glaucoma outpatient department of Skåne University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden, between ...

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

open access: yesОфтальмохирургия, 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.
