Advances in surgical techniques and postoperative care have significantly improved rates of short-term complications following keratoplasty; however, glaucoma remains a highly prevalent long-term and potentially devastating complication for postkeratoplasty patients.

Vision rehabilitation services are important but underutilized resources for patients with glaucoma. Glaucoma and its impact on vision can affect patients' abilities to read and drive, two activities of daily living that are associated with quality of life and functional independence.

It was not until the nineteen nineties that there was scientific evidence for the primary treatment concept of glaucoma, lowering intraocular pressure. The treatment concept of lowering intraocular pressure is now proven by randomized controlled clinical trials (landmark studies).

Currently, glaucoma treatment drugs are facing problems such as low bioavailability, poor patient compliance, discontinuous administration affecting the efficacy of intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering and chronic damage to the eye caused by side effects of drugs.

The Primary Tube Versus Trabeculectomy (PTVT) Study is a multicenter randomized clinical trial comparing the safety and efficacy of tube shunt surgery and trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC) in eyes without previous incisional ocular surgery.

To highlight progress in glaucoma therapy challenging the traditional medication-first approach and present evidence supporting early standalone surgery in the era of micro-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).

To critically summarize and examine published data from randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) investigating the safety and efficacy of microinvasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS) with and without cataract surgery versus cataract surgery alone.

Choroidal effusions are recognized as a common early postoperative complication of glaucoma surgery, and although often benign, they may cause significant ocular morbidity.

The purpose of this review is to examine contemporary techniques for detecting the progression of glaucoma. We provide a general overview of detection principles and review evidence-based diagnostic strategies and specific considerations for detecting glaucomatous progression in patients with mild, moderate and severe disease.

Current literature describing the ocular surface microbiome and host immunity are reviewed alongside experiments studying perturbations of the microbiome to explore the hypothesis that disruption of a healthy microbiome may predispose the ocular surface to inflammation and infection.
