Journal Article
Orthograde and retrograde axoplasmic transport during acute ocular hypertension in the monkey.
TL;DR: Serial reconstructions of radioautographs and peroxidase-reacted sections of the optic nerve heads demonstrated that the orthograde and retrograde transport obstructions were coincidental anatomically by light microscopy in the LS and occurred most prominently in the temporal quadrants of the nerve head.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aqueous shunts in glaucoma: a report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
Don S. Minckler,Brian A. Francis,Elizabeth Hodapp,Henry D. Jampel,Shan C. Lin,John R. Samples,Scott D. Smith,Kuldev Singh +7 more
TL;DR: Level I evidence indicates that there are no advantages to the adjunctive use of antifibrotic agents or systemic corticosteroids with currently available shunts, and aqueous shunts seem to have benefits comparable with those of trabeculectomy in the management of complex glaucoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical experience with the single-plate Molteno implant in complicated glaucomas
TL;DR: Ninety patients with medically uncontrollable glaucomas and poor surgical prognoses received single-plate Molteno implants without postoperative adjunctive systemic antifibrosis therapy without assessment of intraocular pressure (IOP) or visual acuity outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Results with the Trabectome for Treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma
TL;DR: The Trabectome seems to offer a safe and effective method of lowering IOP in OAG and remained stable in all patients beyond 3 weeks postoperatively except one, not sutured at surgery, who had a late hyphema probably associated with corneal wound gaping after accidental blunt trauma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Which Is Better? One or Two?: A Randomized Clinical Trial of Single-plate versus Double-plate Molteno Implantation for Glaucomas in Aphakia and Pseudophakia
Dale K. Heuer,Mary Ann Lloyd,Donald A. Abrams,George Baerveldt,Don S. Minckler,Martha Lee,James F. Martone +6 more
TL;DR: Double-plate Molteno implantation more frequently affords IOP control than single-plates, however, double plates are associated with greater risks of choroidal hemorrhages and/or effusions, corneal decompensation, flat anterior chambers, and phthisis bulbi.
