Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effects of cyclosporine A 2% eye drops to steroid drops (betamethasone) on intraocular pressure (IOP) and success rates after trabeculectomy in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.
- A total of 40 patients were randomly assigned to receive either cyclosporine A or steroid eye drops after surgery, with measurements of IOP and surgical success taken over a 24-month period.
- Results showed that the cyclosporine A group had significantly lower IOP, required fewer glaucoma medications, and had higher surgical success rates, along with reduced dry eye symptoms in the initial months after surgery.
Objective: The retina is a protrusion of the brain, so researchers have recently proposed retinal changes as a new marker for studying central nervous system diseases. To investigate optic nerve head neurovascular structure assessed by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in schizophrenia compared to healthy subjects.
Methods: The study was conducted from 2019 to 2021 at the Ibn Sina Psychiatric Hospital in Mashhad, Iran.
Possible dose-dependent effect of eplerenone on intraocular pressure.
Indian J Ophthalmol
October 2023
Purpose: Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the main modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current therapies target the anterior outflow of aqueous humor or its production. This study aims to demonstrate eplerenone could reduce IOP through a possible posterior outflow path via retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

- The study investigates seasonal variations in anterior segment angle parameters in healthy young adults to understand their clinical relevance in eye conditions like refractive errors and glaucoma.
- A total of 45 participants (23 emmetropic and 22 myopic) underwent measurements across four seasons using advanced optical techniques, with results analyzed for seasonal effects on various ocular parameters.
- Findings revealed significant seasonal impacts on most anterior segment angle parameters, intraocular pressure, and objective refraction, indicating that these factors fluctuate with the seasons, although some parameters remained stable.
