Glaucoma
The authors report a retrospective, non-randomised interventional case series of 39 patients who underwent a standalone XEN45 implantation. All 39 patients (female: male=1.2: 1) completed 12-month follow-up. Mean age was 70.1 years (range 32–92). Primary outcome measures were the intraocular...
Is intracranial pressure affected by the valsalva manoeuvres and exercise?

Neuro-Ophthalmology
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterised by elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), which leads to optic nerve head swelling and a risk of visual loss. The impact of straining and exercise on ICP regulation is poorly understood yet clinically relevant to...
Forward-tilt technique for intraocular pressure measurement in upgaze
The authors suggest a technique to improve the accuracy of measuring IOP in upgaze using Goldmann applanation tonometry. Graves’ ophthalmopathy, also known as thyroid eye disease, is an autoimmune inflammatory condition affecting the orbit and periorbital tissues [1]. It was...Braille phones, glaucoma implants and screenshots

Microinvasive surgical approaches to primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) offer minimally traumatic options for effective intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction in appropriately selected glaucoma patients. Increases in laser trabeculoplasty rates and wider adoption of glaucoma drainage device filtration procedures, together with the...
