Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery in primary angle-closure glaucoma [PDF]
, 2022 Primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is responsible for half of the glaucoma-related blindness worldwide. Cataract surgery with or without trabeculectomy has been considered to be the first-line treatment in eyes with medically uncontrolled PACG.

An investigation of genetic risk factors in primary open-angle glaucoma [PDF]
, 2009 Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component. Notably however, few genes have been robustly associated with POAG in the general population.

Mathematical Modelling of flow in Schlemm's canal and its influence on primary open angle glaucoma [PDF]
, 2008 POAG (Primary Open Angle Glaucoma) is a major cause of blindness. This normally occurs when the IOP (intraocular pressure) increases. High pressure can be caused by an imbalance in the production and drainage of fluid (aqueous humour, AH) in the eye.

Pharmacogenetics of ophthalmic topical β-blockers [PDF]
, 2008 Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. The primary glaucoma risk factor is elevated intraocular pressure. Topical β-blockers are affordable and widely used to lower intraocular pressure.
