Aim: To investigate the association between interleukin-10 (IL-10) genetic polymorphisms and risk of POAG through a case-control study in a Han population of China.
Methods: A total of 210 patients with POAG and 420 normal subjects were recruited during the period from Dec. 2013 to Dec. 2016. The IL-10 -1082A>G (rs1800870), -819T>C (rs1800871) and -592C>A (rs1800872) polymorphisms were determined using iPlex GOLD SNP genotyping analysis (the SequenomMassARRAY® System, Sequenom, San Diego, USA). The association between IL-10 -1082A>G (rs1800870), -819T>C (rs1800871), and -592C>A (rs1800872) polymorphisms and risk of POAG was assessed by singlelogistic regression analysis.
Results: We observed that those carrying the CC genotype of rs1800871 was associated with an increased risk of POAG when compared with those harboring the TT genotype (OR=1.84, 95%CI=1.01-3.38). Those with AA genotype of rs1800872 had a 10.62 fold risk of POAG in comparison to the CC genotype (OR=10.62, 95%CI, 3.41-33.09). A completely linkage disequilibrium was found between IL-10 rs1800871-rs1800872 (D'=1.00, =0.16). The A-C-A (OR=2.60, 95%CI, 1.48-4.58) and G-T-A (OR=2.34, 95%CI, 1.42-3.86) haplotypes were associated with an increased risk of POAG, while the A-T-C haplotype showed a decreased risk of POAG (OR=0.63, 95%CI, 0.49-0.81).
Conclusion: Our data suggest that IL-10 rs1800871 and rs1800872 can be predictive factors for the pathogenesis of POAG in the Chinese population.

The rise of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) has brought new options to glaucoma treatment. However, there are significant differences between MIGS and traditional trabeculectomy in terms of surgical philosophy, applicable populations, and long-term efficacy. As a classic procedure, trabeculectomy achieves a well-documented intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect but is associated with a higher risk of complications.

Purpose: To evaluate the impact of prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy (PAP) severity on the surgical outcomes of trabeculectomy (LEC) and Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) implantation in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.
Methods: In this propensity score-matched retrospective cohort study, a total of 106 eyes with uncontrolled glaucoma were included. Postoperative follow-ups were conducted at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months.

Background: The bleb-forming surgical spectrum in open-angle glaucoma has recently been expanded by novel surgical approaches. Through a medical device implantation (Xen Gel Stent (XGI) or Preserflo Microshunt (PMI)), these procedures aim at more standardised aqueous humour shunting and an intra- and postoperative risk reduction. Postoperatively, however, XEN, PMI and trabeculectomy share their dependence on the proper function of the filtration bleb.

Purpose: To investigate the association between plasma levels of omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of POAG.
Methods: We conducted prospective cohort analyses among 254,157 participants of European descent in the UK Biobank cohort. Mendelian randomization analyses were further performed to assess the causal relationship between omega-3 fatty acids and POAG using publicly available genome-wide association study summary statistics.

: This study aimed to evaluate estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV) in different glaucoma types. : This was observational, cross-sectional, non-interventional study conducted on 127 primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients, 59 primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) patients, 34 pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEX) patients, and 55 normotensive glaucoma (NTG) patients (total of 275 glaucoma patients). The control group (CG, 92 patients) consisted of patients with cataract.
