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.
