Topic: The systematic review and meta-analysis consolidates the extant body of evidence comparing reliability and agreement between Transpalpebral Tonometers (TT) and Goldmann Applanation Tonometer (GAT).
Clinical Relevance: With a global prevalence of 3.54 percent, glaucoma stands as the second leading cause of preventable blindness.
Background: The surgical intervention of refractory primary angle-closure glaucomas (PACGs) is a big challenge to any ophthalmologist since the efficacy of lens extraction in eyes with a long duration of angle closure is limited. Also, trabeculectomy in such eyes is not without vision-threatening complications.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (CPC) in eyes with refractory PACG.
Background: The management of glaucoma in uveitis is challenging. A meticulous combination of anti-glaucoma and anti-inflammatory agents is often needed to control the intraocular pressure (IOP) and preserve the visual status in an otherwise blinding disease.
Aim: To study the clinical course and management of glaucoma in uveitic eyes.
