Article Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to present the results of our investigation into the risk of glaucoma development in patients with chronic renal disease (CRD).
Methods: The present retrospective cohort study used the Korean National Health Insurance Service data, which consisted of 1,025,340 random subjects who were tracked from 2002 to 2013. Newly diagnosed glaucoma and CRD were included on the basis of the Korean Classification of Disease codes. The CRD group consisted of patients who received an initial CRD diagnosis between January 2003 and December 2007 as an index period (n = 3640). The control group (n = 17,971) was selected using 1:5 propensity-score matching using social and demographic factors, along with the year of enrollment. Each group subject was followed until 2013. We used multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis to compare the risk of glaucoma development between the two groups.
Results: Glaucoma consecutively developed in 4.3% in the CRD group and 2.8% in the control group (P < 0.0001). CRD increased the risk of glaucoma development (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.63, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.34-1.98] after adjusting for age, sex, comorbidities, residence, household income, and the year of enrollment. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, patients with comorbidity of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or aged ≥ 50 years showed a significantly higher risk of glaucoma development (all P < 0.008).
Conclusions: A significant association between CRD and following development of glaucoma was revealed after adjusting the potential confounding factors.

Background: To describe clinical features, risk factors and outcomes of out-of-the-bag (OTB) intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation in dead bag syndrome (DBS).
Methods: Retrospective review of a single-surgeon series of eyes with IOLs that developed OTB IOL dislocation, managed at Singapore National Eye Centre (January 2014-December 2021), with a minimum of 6 months of follow-up. Eyes with OTB IOL dislocation following secondary IOL implantation and intraoperative capsule complications were excluded.

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.

Jinan University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.
Purpose: This study aims to explore the factors influencing refractive error following Phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation (PE + IOL) in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG), providing a theoretical basis for preoperative consultation and IOL power selection in clinical practice.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 404 PACG patients from Shenzhen Eye Hospital between 2019 and 2024. Preoperative ocular biometric parameters and combined surgical approaches were evaluated using Spearman correlation, multinomial logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
Visual Acuity Outcomes After Trans Scleral Cyclophotocoagulation: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Topic: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate best-corrected visual acuity (VA) outcomes following transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) in patients with refractory glaucoma.
Clinical Relevance: TSCPC is typically reserved for cases of refractory glaucoma, due to apprehension of negative affects on VA. Prior studies have reported the VA outcomes from TSCPC, but no comprehensive review of the literature has yet been conducted.
