DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2019.04.013
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Because benzodiazepines (BZDs) can affect pupillae muscles, their use could be a risk factor for acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG), which is an ophthalmic emergency. However, there is no research evidence for the association between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/ijg.0000000000001579
Abstract: Precis: Phacoemulsification with goniosynechialysis under an ophthalmic endoscope (Phaco-OE-GSL) is safe and able to lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) for failed trabeculectomy in primary angle-closure glaucoma with cataract. The larger pupil diameter and younger age are… read more here.
