62, respectively) to the number depicted in Table 2 (n = 41 and 59, respectively). The potentially important finding that a negative association (although statistically insignificant) between CCT and HRT II optic disc area in glaucoma patients should be carefully considered. This is in line with several previous reports that also described a statistically insignificant negative association betw...

OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to examine a possible clinical association between Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy (FED) and glaucoma suspect (GS)/ocular hypertension (OHT) or open angle glaucoma (OAG). METHODS A retrospective chart review was carried out using data from electronic medical records and paper records from a private ophthalmology clinic in Kansas City, MO, USA. The review incl...

PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of intraocular (IOP) reduction on retinal ganglion cell (RGC) function measured using pattern electroretinogram optimized for glaucoma (PERGLA) in glaucoma suspect and glaucomatous eyes receiving latanoprost 0.005% versus placebo. METHODS This was a prospective, placebo-controlled, double masked, cross-over clinical trial. One randomly selected eye of each subje...

AIM It is difficult for Optometrists and General Practitioners to know which patients are at risk. The East London glaucoma prediction score (ELGPS) is a web based risk calculator that has been developed to determine Glaucoma risk at the time of screening. Multiple risk factors that are available in a low tech environment are assessed to provide a risk assessment. This is extremely useful in se...

INTRODUCTION The gold standard in functional glaucoma evaluation is standard automated perimetry (SAP). However, SAP depends on the reliability of the patients' responses and other external factors; therefore, other technologies have been developed for earlier detection of visual field changes in glaucoma patients. The frequency-doubling perimetry (FDT) is believed to detect glaucoma earlier th...

BACKGROUND The ability to drive is important for ensuring quality of life for many older adults. Glaucoma is prevalent in this age group and may affect driving. The purpose of this study is to determine if glaucoma and glaucomatous visual field (VF) loss are associated with driving cessation, limitations, and deference to another driver in older adults. METHODS Cross-sectional study. Eighty-o...
