Dr. Agnieszka Dyrda, member of the ICR’s Department of Retina and Vitreous and Cataract Department, has participated together with Dr. Alfonso Antón, head of the Glaucoma Department, in a multicenter study recently published in the prestigious British Journal of Ophthalmology.
Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve characterized by a loss of the vision field and is usually asymptomatic, making early detection and treatment difficult. To raise awareness of this disease and the importance of detecting it in time, we share 10 important details about glaucoma.
Dr. Navero participated as an expert in the roundtable “Clinical cases of glaucoma surgery. Which technique to choose?”, in which he discussed different clinical cases and the best way to treat them.
Dr. Navero gave different presentations, including one on how to improve the technique of trabeculectomy and one on MIGS plus via conjunctival and MPFG Xen. Dr. Alfonso Antón gave a master class in which he shared the basis of research in glaucoma and recommendations on how to get started.
The project has allowed the development of a telemedicine tool and an algorithm based on Artificial Intelligence that would facilitate the automatic detection of signs of glaucoma from retinographies (fundus images).
Dr. Marcos Muñoz, coordinator of the Emergency Department and member of the Glaucoma Department of ICR, presented his doctoral thesis last May at the Escuela de doctorado de la Universidad Internacional de Catalunya of Barcelona. The thesis, entitled Eficacia hipotensora y seguridad de la cirugía filtrante con implante Ex-PRESS versus esclerectomía profunda con implante Esnoper […]
