Histopathologic Validation of Fourier-Ellipsometry Measurements of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness
Robert N. Weinreb,Andreas W. Dreher,Anne L. Coleman,Harry A. Quigley,Blake R. Shaw,Klaus Reiter +5 more
TL;DR: Quantitating retinal nerve fiber layer thickness may enhance discrimination between glaucomatous and normal eyes earlier than is currently available by anatomic and functional approaches.

New developments in the drug treatment of glaucoma.
Lawrence M. Hurvitz,Paul L. Kaufman,Alan L. Robin,Robert N. Weinreb,Kathryn S. Crawford,Blake R. Shaw +5 more
TL;DR: Standard treatment modalities for patients with glaucoma are reviewed and 3 classes of drugs which are undergoing development are described, including apraclonidine (aplonidine, ALO 2145), an α2-adrenergic agonist which has been released for clinical use; topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitors; and prostaglandins (PGs), a new class of drugs with topical ocular hypotensive activity are described.

Journal ArticleDOI
Intraocular Pressure Elevation After Pupillary Dilation in Open Angle Glaucoma
Blake R. Shaw,Richard A. Lewis +1 more
TL;DR: A retrospective study on the frequency and severity of intraocular pressure elevation following dilation in patients with primary open angle glaucoma found the only significant risk factor found was treatment with miotics.
