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

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery: Is It Here to Stay?
Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 53, Issue 8, Page 1025-1038, November 2025.ABSTRACT The advent of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) has expanded the treatment options available for glaucoma by providing options for reducing intraocular pressure without the serious complication profile associated with incisional glaucoma surgery.

The AIDA and the extra laser systems for excimer laser trabeculotomy proved comparable IOP lowering efficacy—12-month results [PDF]
, 2022 Purpose Cataract surgery combined with excimer laser trabeculotomy (phaco-ELT) leads to a significant reduction in intraocular pressure by enhancing trabecular outflow. The aim of this study is to compare two laser systems for ELT (AIDA vs. ExTra).

Progress in Translating Glaucoma Genetics Into the Clinic: A Review
Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 246-259, April 2025.ABSTRACT Precision medicine is paving the way for personalised risk assessment, and its translation into glaucoma clinics holds potential to change current management paradigms. Our understanding of glaucoma's genetic architecture has expanded in recent years, recognising both monogenic and polygenic contributions.
