Efficacy comparison of combined trabeculectomy with MMC and gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy.

Purpose: To compare the efficacy of gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy combined with cataract surgery (PGATT) and trabeculectomy combined with cataract surgery (PTRAB) in open-angle glaucoma patients.

Methods: A multi-centered, retrospective, non-randomized study included 67 PGATT patients and 70 PTRAB patients. We compared preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) compared with early and final IOP, medication numbers, and BCVA levels.

The efficacy of gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculectomy combined with phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) with or without cataract extraction (CE) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEX) patients.

Methods: A retrospective, non-randomized study included 108 eyes of 108 patients, with a mean age of 65.96 ± 14.

Assessment of Interpupillary Distance in the Azerbaijan Society.

Introduction: To determine the normal distribution of interpupillary distance (IPD) in adult males and females of the Azerbaijani society and create a specific IPD database.

Materials And Methods: Subjects (641 males, 491 females) aged 18 to 85 years were investigated for anatomical IPD in this study. Eye examinations and measurements were performed.

Assessment of Differences in Pupil Size Following Phacoemulsification Surgery.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to detect the changes in pupil size developing after phacoemulsification surgery.

Methods: Seventy-five eyes of a total of 49 patients (32 males and 17 females) were included in this prospective clinical trial. Routine preoperative ophthalmological examinations of the patients were performed.

Evaluation of interpupillary distance in the Turkish population.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to report normative values and ranges of interpupillary distance (IPD) in different age groups of a Turkish population.

Methods: A total of 756 healthy subjects were included in this prospective study. After a complete ophthalmic evaluation, subjects were divided into four age groups to assess differences between age groups in relation to IPD.
