Journal ArticleDOI
The advanced glaucoma intervention study (AGIS): 7. the relationship between control of intraocular pressure and visual field deterioration
Fred Ederer,Ma,Douglas E. Gaasterland,E. Kenneth Sullivan,Allen D. Beck,Bruce E. Prum,Marshall N. Cyrlin,Howard S. Weiss +7 more
TL;DR: In both analyses low intraocular pressure is associated with reduced progression of visual field defect, supporting evidence from earlier studies of a protective role for low intracular pressure in visual field deterioration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS): 13. Comparison of treatment outcomes within race: 10-year results.
Fred Ederer,Douglas A Gaasterland,Leonard G Dally,Jonghyeon Kim,Paul C. VanVeldhuisen,Beth Blackwell,Bruce E. Prum,George Shafranov,Robert C. Allen,Allen D. Beck,Agis Investigators +10 more
TL;DR: Although IOP was lowered in both sequences in black and white patients with medically uncontrolled glaucoma, long-term visual function outcomes were better for the ATT sequence in black patients and better forThe TAT sequence in white patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term surgical and visual outcomes in primary congenital glaucoma: 360° trabeculotomy versus goniotomy
Maria E. Mendicino,Mary G. Lynch,Arlene V. Drack,Allen D. Beck,Thomas S. Harbin,Zane F. Pollard,M. Angela Vela,Michael J. Lynn +7 more
TL;DR: For primary congenital glaucoma, 360° trabeculotomy is a highly effective procedure that results in excellent pressure control and is at least as successful as multiple standard procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aqueous shunt devices compared with trabeculectomy with Mitomycin-C for children in the first two years of life.
TL;DR: Aqueous shunt implantation offers a significantly greater chance of successful glaucoma control in the first 2 years of life, compared with trabeculectomy with MMC, however, the enhanced success with aqueousShunt devices is associated with a higher likelihood of postoperative complications requiring surgical revision, most commonly tube repositioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
360° Trabeculotomy for Primary Congenital Glaucoma
Allen D. Beck,Mary G. Lynch +1 more
TL;DR: A technique for performing 360° trabeculotomy in a single procedure using a 6-0 polypropylene (Prolene) suture fragment is refined and used in 15 patients (26 eyes) with primary congenital glaucoma.
