Filter by:The main goal of this study is to assess the severity of postoperative corneal astigmatism induced by implantation of the XEN Gel Stent compared to that induced by traditional filtering surgery (trabeculectomy and GDDs). Corneal astigmatism can be assessed using corneal topography, a non-invasive tool which provides an accurate estimate of corneal curvature in all meridians. To the best of our knowledge, no study has yet attempted to quantify the amount of astigmatism induced by the XEN Gel Stent.
Comparison between phacoemulsification with endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation versus phacoemulsification alone in patients with either primary angle closure or primary angle closure glaucoma presenting with cataract or a clear lens.
1. Develop a measurement protocol by OCT imaging and characterization of the anterior chamber change in glaucoma patients before and after surgery. 2. Show the effect of combined surgery in control of intra ocular pressure.
The Tomey CASIA (Tomey Corporation, Nagoya, Japan) is a novel rapid imaging device that captures high-quality imaging of the entire anterior chamber of the eye over detailed imaging of a single section. In this prospective study, we want to investigate and compare the anatomical structure of the drainage angle of the eye in patients with different types glaucoma using Tomey machine. This study gives us a better understanding of the predictability, validity and accuracy of Tomey machine in the diagnosis of different types of glaucoma. Moreover, the data collected here will be used to create an artificial intelligence (AI) platform to screen certain type of glaucoma.
There is increasing evidence that there are genetic risk factors for several forms of glaucoma, such as glaucoma caused by pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) ,primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The aim of the present prospective, multi-center, case-control study is to identify susceptibility genes/loci for PXF, PACG and POAG using a whole genome association (WGA) approach.
To evaluate the influence of superior versus temporal laser peripheral iridotomy location on post-operative visual acuity and contrast sensitivity.
Primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is common, phacotrabeculectomy is associated with a significant risk of complications.The Ex-PRESS shunt was introduced as a modification to trabeculectomy, with the theoretical advantages of reduced complications.Our purpose is to perform a prospective study to evaluate the clinical outcomes and safety of the Ex-PRESS shunt with cataract surgery for PACG patients coexisting cataract.
To assure the quality of follow-up and treatment, data of glaucoma patients are stored and evaluated after anonymisation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and need for prescribing anti-inflammatory topical drops to patients undergoing laser peripheral iridotomy.
This is a 10-centre randomized controlled clinical trial to explore whether laser peripheral iridoplasty (LPIP) plus laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) is more effective than single LPI to control the progression of primary angle closure with multi-mechanism based on the UBM classification.
