Optical coherence tomography analysis of filtering blebs after long-term, functioning trabeculectomy and XEN® stent implant.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to use Triton® SweptSource OCT to evaluate the morphology of blebs formed when eyes are treated with XEN® implants and to compare these with the blebs in successfully functioning eyes after trabeculectomy (TB) and with eyes of healthy controls.

Methods: A cross-sectional, observational study. We analyzed 25 eyes, 15 after TB and 10 with XEN® implants, comparing them with 23 healthy eyes (controls).

Outcomes of Trabeculectomy and Phacotrabeculectomy With Collagen Matrix Implant (Ologen) and Low-dose Mitomycin C: 2-Year Follow-up.

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to analyze the results achieved in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) after trabeculectomy or combined surgery (phacotrabeculectomy) with low-dose mitomycin C (MMC) using the Ologen Collagen Matrix (Ologen CM) implant.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 58 eyes from 47 consecutive patients with glaucoma who underwent filtering surgery alone or combined with cataract surgery. The study group included 29 eyes that underwent trabeculectomy (14 eyes) or phacotrabeculectomy (15 eyes) with low-dose MMC (0.

Role of Tear Osmolarity in Dry Eye Symptoms After Cataract Surgery.

Purpose: To analyze changes in tear osmolarity and the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) in patients after cataract surgery.

Design: Prospective, observational cohort study.

Methods: setting: Institutional.

Effect of topical prostaglandin analogues on corneal hysteresis.

Purpose: To evaluate possible changes in corneal hysteresis (CH) after topical treatment with a prostaglandin analogue in medication-naïve eyes.

Methods: This was a prospective, observational cohort study. Sixty-eight eyes of 68 patients were prospectively included who were newly diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in our institution.
