Reduction of IOP is the only established method to treat open-angle glaucoma, and therefore, IOP measurement has persisted as a fundamental component in diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma.1,2 Single-applanation-tonometry measurements are often used to decide appropriate management strategies; however, this snapshot-style information may fail to capture peak IOPs and does not measure short-term diurnal...

Chronic angle-closure glaucoma (CACG) affects a large number of people worldwide, accounting for half of primary glaucoma cases [1], with a higher prevalence among the Asian population [2]. This condition is caused by partial or complete closure of the anterior chamber angle due to an anatomic alteration that induces permanent contact between the iris root and the trabecular meshwork (TM), resulting...

Uveitis is a group of diseases characterized by intraocular inflammation [1]. In Japan, approximately 2.2% of new ophthalmological patients were diagnosed with uveitis [2]. Complicated cataract, uveitic glaucoma (UG) and other posterior segment conditions such as epiretinal membrane are common complications of uveitis and important causes of visual loss [3,4,5]. Previous reports have verified the efficacy...
