Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

1.1K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Refractive Surgery

Background:

  • High myopia presents significant visual challenges.
  • Accurate and stable refractive correction is crucial for patients with high myopia.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate visual outcomes after lenticule extraction for high myopia (>-10D) using SCHWIND ATOS.
  • Assess refractive and astigmatic stability from 1 week to 1 year post-surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 49 eyes treated with SCHWIND ATOS for high myopia (>-10D).
  • Analysis of visual acuity, refractive error, and astigmatism outcomes.
  • Minimum 6-month follow-up period.

Main Results:

  • 73% of eyes achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) of 20/25 or better.
  • 92% of cases had postoperative spherical equivalent within 0.75D, showing excellent stability.
  • High accuracy in astigmatism correction: 96% within 0.5D and 93% within 5 degrees.

Conclusions:

  • Lenticule extraction with SCHWIND ATOS is a safe and effective treatment for high myopia.
  • The procedure demonstrates significant stability in visual and refractive outcomes.
  • Accurate and precise correction of both spherical and astigmatic errors is achieved.
