Introduction: The term glaucoma refers to a group of diseases that have a characteristic optic neuropathy with associated visual field loss in common. Intraocular pressure has been considered to be the only causal factor for glaucoma and the only factor that can be manipulated to alter the course of the disease. But considering high intraocular pressure as the only factor responsible for glauco...

purpose: to evaluate visual outcomes and intraocular pressure (iop) after single-site phacotrabeculectomy with mitomycin c in patients with senile cataract and primary open angle glaucoma (poag), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (pxg), or chronic angle closure glaucoma (cacg). methods: in this retrospective study, patients older than 50 years who had significant cataracts (bcva £ 20/60) and uncontrol...

AIM To evaluate the etiology and management of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) following posterior chamber phakic implantable collamer lens (ICL) surgery. METHODS Between 2009 and 2015, 638 eyes of 359 subjects with refractive myopia, underwent V4b and V4c (CentraFLOW) model ICL implantation. Ocular hypertension (OHT) was defined as IOP of ≥ 22 mm Hg on two separate occasions and elevated...
