A combination of canaloplasty and goniotomy provides sustained IOP reduction and decreases medication burden with a strong safety profile, making it a valuable option for glaucoma management.

An AI model for target IOP prediction performs as well as glaucoma specialists, offering a promising tool to enhance glaucoma management, especially for nonspecialists.

Clinician-scientists play a vital role in advancing ophthalmology by balancing patient care with research, leveraging clinical insights to drive impactful discoveries, and collaborating across disciplines to stay at the forefront of innovation.

The research analyzed the 1-year outcomes of 132 eyes, evaluating mean IOP, baseline changes, medication reduction, and stratifying the results by race (African American vs Caucasian) and glaucoma severity (mild, moderate, severe).

Emerging technologies, such as remote tonometry and genetic risk scoring, are revolutionizing glaucoma care by enabling earlier detection, personalized management, and more efficient use of resources.

The procedure offers a renewed approach to suprachoroidal drainage, with potential for both combined and standalone glaucoma surgery.

The Elios procedure increased aqueous humor outflow in all investigated eyes, but further studies are needed to correlate these improvements with its clinical efficacy.

A systematic review and meta-analysis highlights the safety and efficacy of excimer laser trabeculostomy as an implant-free MIGS procedure for managing open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension, either alone or in combination with cataract surgery.

The new first-line laser treatment for glaucoma and ocular hypertension will be unveiled at the 2025 American Glaucoma Society annual meeting in Washington, DC, from February 26 to March 2.

Andrew G. Iwach, MD, recounts two personal life experiences that underscore the significance of patient-centered care in glaucoma management.

During the 2024 American Glaucoma Society meeting held February 29 to March 3 in Huntington Beach, California, Nixoc SA presented posters outlining data on NCX 470.
