TL;DR: Primary open angle glaucoma is a multi-factorial optic neuropathy characterized by progressive retinal ganglion cell death and associated visual field loss and is an emerging disease with increasing cost and negative visual function impacts; yet the understanding of OAG risk factors and treatments are not fully apparent.

The Association among Blood Pressure, Blood Pressure Medications, and Glaucoma in a Nationwide Electronic Health Records Database
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors found that low blood pressure is associated with increased risk of developing open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in a national longitudinal EHR database using univariable and multivariable Cox regression models.

Influencia de la córnea en la medida de la presión intraocular con distintos sistemas tonométricos
TL;DR: Los resultado obtenidos muestran que la cirugia tipo LASEK no modifica the PIO salvo por the reduccion del ECC, mientras que thespianica LASIK muestra un descenso adicional tanto with el TAG como with el TCD, probablemente secundario al corte estromal.

TL;DR: The prevalence of open-angle glaucoma in Beaver Dam is similar to that in other white populations, and findings from this study re-emphasize the notion that estimates of glauca prevalence should be based on assessing multiple risk indicators.
