Aim: To compare the surgical outcomes of glaucoma drainage device implantation (GDI) and trans-scleral neodymium:YAG cyclophotocoagulation (CPC) in the management of refractory glaucoma after Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK).
Methods: This retrospective study on observational case series enrolled 29 patients who underwent DSAEK and posterior anti-glaucoma surgery (15 with GDI and 14 with CPC). The main outcome measures were intraocular pressure (IOP), glaucoma surgery success rate (defined as IOP of 6-21 mm Hg without additional anti-glaucoma operation), number of glaucoma medications, endothelial graft status, and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
Objective: To measure the number of glucocorticoid receptors (GR) in the trabecular meshwork and peripheral blood lymphocytes of rabbits, and to explore their relationship with steroid-induced glaucoma.
Methods: Steroid-induced glaucoma model was induced by subconjunctival injection of 0.5 mg dexamethasone in the right eyes every two days for a month.
