Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes of micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation between primary open-angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, and other types of secondary glaucoma. Methods: Outcomes of 96 consecutive patients with refractory, end-stage glaucoma treated with micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation were retrospectively reviewed. Follow-up examinations were performed on a regular basis until 12 months postoperatively. Surgical successes were defined as maintaining intraocular pressure ⩽18 mmHg and ⩾20% reduction in intraocular pressure (criteria A), ⩽15 mmHg intraocular pressure and ⩾25% reduction in intraocular pressure (criteria B), and ⩽12 mmHg intraocular pressure and ⩾30% reduction in intraocular pressure from baseline (criteria C). Results: Ninety-six eyes of 96 patients (50 (52%) females, 46 (48%) males) were included. Among all eyes, 32 were primary open-angle glaucoma, 30 were pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, and 34 were other types of secondary glaucoma. The mean age was 59.37 ± 11.45 (range: 20–91) years. The mean follow-up period was 14.2 ± 3.9 (range: 12–16) months. At 12 months, the success rates of primary open-angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, and secondary glaucoma group were 68.75%, 66.6%, and 64.7% (p = 0.185) for criteria A; 56.25%, 53.3%, and 50% (p = 0.153) for criteria B; and 43.75%, 43.3%, and 38.2% (p = 0.146) for criteria C. Four patients (12.5%) in primary open-angle glaucoma group, 5 patients (16.6%) in pseudoexfoliation glaucoma group, and 14 (41.2%) patients in other secondary glaucoma group required reoperation during the follow-up (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation is an equally effective method of lowering intraocular pressure in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, and other types of secondary glaucoma. The rate of reoperation was higher in refractory secondary glaucoma patients.

Purpose. The Glaucoma Stereo Analysis Study, a cross-sectional multicenter collaborative study, used a stereo fundus camera (nonmyd WX) to assess various morphological parameters of the optic nerve head (ONH) in glaucoma patients. We compared the associations of each parameter between the visual field loss progression group and no-progression group. Methods. The study included 187 eyes of 187 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or normal-tension glaucoma. We divided the mean deviation (MD) slope values of all patients into the progression group (<−0.3 dB/year) and no-progression group (≧−0.3 dB/year). ONH morphological parameters were calculated with prototype analysis software. The correlations between glaucomatous visual field progression and patient characteristics or each ONH parameter were analyzed with Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. Results. The MD slope averages in the progression group and no-progression group were −0.58 ± 0.28 dB/year and 0.05 ± 0.26 dB/year, respectively. Among disc parameters, vertical disc width (diameter), disc area, cup area, and cup volume in the progression group were significantly less than those in the no-progression group. Logistic regression analysis revealed a significant association between the visual field progression and disc area (odds ratio 0.49/mm2 disc area). Conclusion. A smaller disc area may be associated with more rapid glaucomatous visual field progression.
