Microvascular Changes in Exfoliation Syndrome: OCT Angiography Analysis of Peripapillary Density and Foveal Avascular Zone. [PDF]
Purpose To investigate retinal vascular alterations in unilateral and bilateral pseudoexfoliation by assessing macular and peripapillary vascular density, as well as foveal avascular zone parameters. Patients and Methods This prospective study included 77 eyes from 39 patients with unilateral pseudoexfoliation, 54 eyes from 27 patients with bilateral ...

Association between Pseudoexfoliation and Alzheimer's disease‐related brain atrophy [PDF]
Abstract Background Pseudoexfoliation(PEX) syndrome is an age‐related disorder of the extracellular material accumulation in the anterior segment of eye. PEX material is not clearly known, but several studies have found amyloid as a PEX component. Alzheimer's disease(AD) is a representative disorder in which amyloid accumulates.

Salvaging a Failed PreserFlo MicroShunt Using a Telescopic Tube-in-Tube Connection Technique With an EyePlate Implant: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The PreserFlo MicroShunt is a subconjunctival glaucoma drainage device designed to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) via a minimally invasive approach. However, device failure due to bleb fibrosis remains a significant clinical challenge, especially when initial revision surgery is unsuccessful.

GWAS links variants in neuronal development and actin remodeling related loci with pseudoexfoliation syndrome without glaucoma [PDF]
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEXS) is an age-related elastosis, strongly associated with the development of secondary glaucoma. It is clearly suggested that PEXS has a genetic component, but this has not been extensively studied.

Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma: Clinical Presentation and Therapeutic Options
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) is one of the most common causes of open-angle glaucoma, with a higher risk of vision loss, a higher maximum and mean intraocular pressure (IOP) at diagnosis, and a wider range of IOP fluctuation compared to primary open ...

Phakic Pattern Pseudoexfoliation Material Accumulation on Intraocular Lens Surface
Pseudophakic pseudoexfoliation is the accumulation of pseudoexfoliation material on the intraocular lens. Most of the cases have showed scattered flecks of pseudoexfoliation material on the surface of the intraocular lens.
