Precis: Second trabeculectomy and glaucoma drainage device implantation offer similar success rates for juvenile open angle glaucoma after initial trabeculectomy failure. However, second trabeculectomies required fewer medications. A quarter of patients in both groups required a third operation after 2.

- The study aimed to assess how effective manual grading of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) is in detecting plateau iris configuration (PIC) and comparing it with established ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) criteria.
- A total of 179 eyes from 142 patients were analyzed, revealing that only about 47.5% had a confirmed diagnosis of PIC, with varying sensitivity (56-78%) and specificity (49-64%) in AS-OCT for diagnosing PIC.
- The findings concluded that manual grading of AS-OCT for detecting PIC is not adequately reliable to replace UBM, as the accuracy rates were relatively low and the agreement between AS-OCT and UBM was only fair.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how effective deep learning (DL) algorithms are in predicting plateau iris using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) images, particularly for patients with primary angle closure disease (PACD).
- - Researchers collaborated with a tech department to develop and validate the DL model, analyzing data from 179 eyes and comparing the algorithm's predictions against ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) findings.
- - Results showed the DL model achieved high accuracy with a sensitivity of 87.9%, specificity of 97.6%, and an area under the curve (AUC-ROC) of 0.95, indicating strong potential for aiding clinicians in diagnosing this condition.
Purpose: To evaluate the long-term outcomes of second Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) implants in eyes with glaucoma.
Design: Retrospective interventional case series.
Methods: Patients with sequential second Ahmed valves implanted in the same eye from 1994 to 2016 were included.
Optic Disc Image Subtraction as an Aid to Detect Glaucoma Progression.
Transl Vis Sci Technol
October 2017
Purpose: To present a digital image subtraction technique to alert clinicians to signs of glaucomatous optic disc progression.
Methods: Ninety-two glaucomatous eyes (65 patients) were included. Thirty-three eyes were identified as progressive and 59 as stable based on comparison of baseline and follow-up stereoscopic disc photographs by three masked glaucoma specialists.
