Summary: The study aimed to determine factors associated with visual field deterioration after trabeculectomy, focusing on peripapillary and macular vessel density changes assessed by OCT-A. Results suggest that changes in peripapillary vessel density may play a role in predicting visual function post-trabeculectomy.

Summary: In patients with moderate-stage primary open-angle glaucoma, differences in intereye visual field defect (VFD) asymmetry were associated with varying rates of progression, with unilateral VFD eyes showing the fastest progression. Greater intereye MD asymmetry index and intereye hemifield visual-sensitivity asymmetry index were significant risk factors for glaucoma progression.

Summary: This study aims to analyze the effects of dynamic corneal response parameters (DCRs) on visual field (VF) progression in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) and hypertension glaucoma (HTG). The results show that the first applanation deflection area (A1Area) is an independent risk factor for VF progression in NTG, while DCRs in HTG are not related to VF progression.

Summary: The study aimed to identify the temporal correlation between the increase in peripapillary retinoschisis (PPRS) and glaucoma progression. Through comparative clinical timeline analysis, it was found that the increase in PPRS temporally correlated with glaucoma progression in eyes with PPRS. The study suggested that possible glaucoma progression may be considered around the time of increase and de novo development of PPRS in glaucomatous eyes.

Summary: This study found a significant association between the baseline margin regularity of beta-zone PPA and subsequent VF progression in eyes with POAG, suggesting that irregular beta-zone PPA margin may indicate vulnerability in the parapapillary area to further glaucomatous damage.

Summary: This study investigated the possible association between nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and primary open angle glaucoma (OAG). Using the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) of Taiwan, a retrospective research was conducted and 4184 NPC patients and 16736 non-NPC patients were included. The results showed that NPC patients had a significantly higher risk of developing OAG compared to non-NPC patients (adjusted hazard ratio of 1.293). Therefore, NPC may be an independent risk factor for the development of OAG.

Summary: In patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, corneal hysteresis (CH) was associated with visual field (VF) progression, while biomechanical glaucoma factor (BGF) could not distinguish between treated POAG patients and normal eyes.

Summary: We used automated image analysis to investigate mechanical strains on the disc, retinal, and choroidal vessels during horizontal eye movement in adults. Deep learning analysis of optical images allowed us to quantify local tissue deformations and observe shifts in choroidal vessels relative to retinal vessels. The results suggest that the shear-ing of the optic nerve relative to the choroid and sclera may contribute to disc tilting and peripapillary atrophy.

Summary: This study evaluated the association of optic disc deformation with open-angle glaucoma progression risk through meta-analysis and meta-regression analysis. The results showed a positive correlation between optic disc tilt and glaucoma progression risk, while the association between optic disc torsion and glaucoma progression risk was less clear. Future research with stratified analysis according to age and tailored diagnostic criteria is needed for more rigorous analysis in this area.

Summary: The study aimed to compare macular and peripapillary vessel density between eyes with POAG and PXG using OCTA. Results showed that PXG eyes had lower values in macular vessel density in parafoveal region, while FAZ parameters were larger in PXG eyes. There were significant negative correlations between fovea VD and FAZ area, FAZ perimeter, and between fovea thickness and FAZ area, FAZ perimeter. Overall, PXG eyes exhibited greater macular vascular damage compared to POAG eyes with similar glaucomatous damage.

Summary: In this study, it was found that mGCIPL thickness, pRNFL thickness, and mVD decreased over time in POAG eyes, with the rate of reduction of mVD significantly influenced by the baseline measurements of mGCIPL thickness, pRNFL thickness, and mVD.

Summary: This study investigates visual field (VF) progression in open-angle glaucoma (OAG) patients who had a history of refractive corneal ablation surgery (RCAS). A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 21 subjects with RCAS history and 36 patients without RCAS history. VF progression was compared between the two groups, and it was found that glaucoma subjects in the RCAS group had a higher likelihood of VF progression compared to the non-RCAS group. The study suggests that anti-glaucoma treatment should be actively enhanced in clinical practice.

Summary: The study found significant differences in OCT-A parameters among normal and glaucomatous eyes, with significant differences in peripapillary VD and macular vessel density between POAG and PXG eyes. PXG eyes exhibited more severe damage in superficial and deep macular vessel densities.

Summary: The blood flow situation in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) can be distinguished using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). The study found that the superficial perifoveal plexus perfusion density was significantly lower in PXG eyes compared to POAG eyes, while other parameters did not show significant differences.

Summary: Concentric retinitis pigmentosa is a rare form of RP with better visual function, preserved ellipsoid zones, and subnormal but recordable responses on electroretinogram. Genetic testing may reveal different causative genes in patients with this condition. Myotonic dystrophy-associated retinopathy is an important differential diagnosis to consider.
