Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Monthly follow-up after macular hematoma surgery in exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is recommended. More frequent monitoring preserves postoperative visual acuity compared to less frequent follow-up schedules.

Area of Science:

Ophthalmology
Retinal Surgery
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)

Background:

Long-term functional outcomes after macular hematoma (MH) surgery in exudative AMD are often suboptimal.
Subretinal macular hemorrhage (SMH) management in AMD requires careful monitoring.

Purpose of the Study:

To compare visual outcomes between monthly and bimestrial postoperative follow-up schedules in patients who underwent surgery for SMH associated with exudative AMD.
To determine the optimal follow-up frequency for preserving visual acuity after SMH surgery.

Main Methods:

Retrospective, interventional case series of 21 eyes with SMH associated with exudative AMD.
Patients were divided into two groups based on postoperative visit frequency: ≥11 visits (monthly) or 6-10 visits (bimestrial).
All patients underwent vitrectomy, subretinal recombinant tissue plasminogen activator injection, fluid-gas exchange, and anti-VEGF intravitreal injections (IVT).

Main Results:

The monthly follow-up group (≥11 visits) demonstrated statistically significant greater visual acuity (VA) changes (logMAR -0.29±0.44) compared to the bimestrial group (logMAR 0.42±0.73) at 1-year postoperative.
Patients in the monthly follow-up group received more anti-VEGF IVTs for exudative recurrences (ER).

Conclusions:

Monthly postoperative follow-up, including monitoring between intravitreal injection (IVT) series, is highly recommended.
This intensive monitoring strategy helps preserve postoperative visual acuity in patients undergoing surgery for SMH associated with AMD.
