Purpose: To determine if glaucoma medications are associated with pregnancy and/or postnatal complications.
Methods: Multicenter descriptive survey. Subjects were female patients 18-45 years who were previously pregnant with a diagnosis of glaucoma or ocular hypertension prior to pregnancy.
Purpose: To determine the level of awareness and knowledge about glaucoma surgery and post-surgery counseling amongst paramedical staff at a tertiary eye-care hospital.
Methods: This observational cross-sectional study included a random sample of 94 hospital personnel: 37 general nurse midwives, 47 ophthalmic assistants, and 10 patient caretakers (PCTs). Participants were administered a questionnaire about glaucoma surgery and post-surgery counseling of patients.
Purpose: To evaluate the gonioscopic changes in patients receiving Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) without pre-existing ocular hypertension (OHT) and to report its correlation with post-surgery OHT, graft survival, and visual outcomes.
Methods: Adult patients who underwent DSEK surgery from April 2014 to March 2018 with at least 2 years of follow-up were analyzed in this retrospective study. Demographic details, indication of DSEK, necessary anterior and posterior segment findings, and the post-DSEK OHT details were documented.
Purpose: To report a case of unilateral Iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome- Progressive iris atrophy (PIA) with an overlapping chronic angle closure glaucoma (CACG) and to highlight the effect of bilateral Laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) in such a co-occurrence.
Case Description: A patient presented to us with bilateral gradual painless progressive diminution of vision. Both eyes (BE) had a clear cornea, shallow peripheral anterior chamber depth, grade 2 nuclear sclerosis, raised intraocular pressure and glaucomatous optic neuropathy.
Purpose: To describe the socioeconomic profile, awareness level and reasons for the delay in accessing timely eye care for cataract surgery in patients of lens-induced glaucoma (LIG).
Methods: This cross-sectional observational study included all patients with LIG who presented to a tertiary eye care centre in central rural India between March 2019 to February 2020. Data were collected through a questionnaire.
