Are you still doing monocular trials?


The IOP difference between the ocular hypertension patients and normotensive individuals is associated with outflow facility, not uveoscleral outflow


Instability and deformation of this structure (viz lamina cribrosa) might prove to bean early diagnostic sign of glaucoma


Behavioral aspects of performance are more frequent causes for surgical errorsthan lack of technical expertise


Assessment of the rate of progression is highly variable among persons withglaucoma and is a critical determinant for estimating the target intraocular pressure goals


Every other day dosing with bimatoprost


The mechanisms of outflow resistance in normal and glaucomatous eyes stillremain unknown


Remodeling occurs in the posterior sclera in response to elevated IOP


Any technology that facilitates the acquisition of more IOP data in children, especially outside the operating room or office, will be a great help in caring for children with glaucoma


As with any imaging technology, guidelines derived from one technique shouldbe revalidated on each new instrument or imaging platform prior to clinical implementation


Astigmatism of moderate degree does not influence the assessment of the RNFLthickness by OCT substantially


Holes were found in the retinal nerve fiber layer in 16% of glaucomatous eyes but none of the normal eyes


Clinicians are frequently uncertain about how to interpret apparently conflicting results from different tests


To characterize both IOP and its response to therapy, we need multiple measurements at multiple times


While (QOD dosing) may be appropriate in a limited number of patients, for most patients this dosing regimen is probably not ideal


Presence of anti-inflammatory protein after the shunt devices have been present for a long enough periods perhaps indicates an altered homeostasis


One year is very little time in the life of a glaucoma patient


Adjunctive use of medications to prevent capsular fibrosis has the potential to increase the success rates of aqueous tube shunt surgery by preventing tube encapsulation


Does postoperative topical ketorolac improve the function of Ahmed implants?


The importance of early detection and treatment of OAG is reinforced, before the disease becomes severe enough to affect the patient's ability to perform activities such as driving
