    The dress. The dress was a 2015 online viral phenomenon centred on a photograph of a dress. Viewers disagreed on whether the dress was blue and black, or white and gold. The phenomenon revealed differences in human colour perception and became the subject of scientific investigations into neuroscience and vision science .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabeculectomy

    Conclusion. Trabeculectomy is the most common invasive glaucoma surgery. It is highly effective in the treatment of advanced glaucoma as demonstrated in major glaucoma studies. [citation needed] Even if a prior trabeculectomy has failed a second trabeculectomy can be performed at a different site. If scarring is the main reason, anti-fibrotic ...

    Micro-invasive glaucoma surgery ( MIGS) is the latest advance in surgical treatment for glaucoma, which aims to reduce intraocular pressure by either increasing outflow of aqueous humor or reducing its production. MIGS comprises a group of surgical procedures which share common features. [ 1] MIGS procedures involve a minimally invasive ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_tonometry

    Ocular tonometry. Tonometry is the procedure that eye care professionals perform to determine the intraocular pressure (IOP), the fluid pressure inside the eye. It is an important test in the evaluation of patients at risk from glaucoma. [ 1] Most tonometers are calibrated to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury ( mmHg ), with the normal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_chamber_paracentesis

    Anterior chamber paracentesis. Anterior chamber paracentesis ( ACP) is a surgical procedure done to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) of the eye. The procedure is used in management of glaucoma and uveitis. It is also used for clinical diagnosis of infectious uveitis.

  8. Glaucoma surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaucoma_surgery

    Glaucoma is a group of diseases affecting the optic nerve that results in vision loss and is frequently characterized by raised intraocular pressure (IOP). There are many glaucoma surgeries, and variations or combinations of those surgeries, that facilitate the escape of excess aqueous humor from the eye to lower intraocular pressure, and a few that lower IOP by decreasing the production of ...

  9. Trabeculoplasty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabeculoplasty

    Trabeculoplasty is a laser treatment for glaucoma. It is done on an argon laser equipped slit lamp, using a Goldmann gonioscope lens mirror. Specifically, an argon laser is used to improve drainage through the eye's trabecular meshwork, from which the aqueous humour drains. This helps reduce intraocular pressure caused by open-angle glaucoma.
