Article Synopsis
- * Comprehensive diagnostic tests, including imaging and optical coherence tomography, were performed, and the patient responded positively to treatment with oral prednisone, demonstrating noticeable improvement.
- * The case highlights the critical importance of accurate differential diagnosis in eye examinations to avoid misdiagnosing conditions like posterior scleritis, which can lead to severe complications and impacts on patient health.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of the XEN45 gel stent implant in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or secondary open-angle glaucoma.
Patients And Methods: This is a retrospective, single-center, and comparative study conducted in consecutive primary open-angle glaucoma or secondary open-angle glaucoma patients, who underwent a XEN45 implant, alone or in combination with phacoemulsification. The primary end point was the intraocular pressure at the end of the follow-up period.
Purpose: To evaluate the intraocular pressure-lowering effect, the safety profile, and the success rate of the XEN45 Gel Stent (Allergan, Dublin, Ireland) in patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma.
Methods: Retrospective study conducted on patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, with or without cataract, who underwent XEN45 implantation surgery with subconjunctival mitomycin-C and had a minimum postoperative follow-up period of 12 months. The primary outcome measure was intraocular pressure reduction at 1 year as compared to baseline.
