    Revolutionizing Glaucoma Care: Harnessing Artificial Intelligence for Precise Diagnosis and Management
    (Gazi Eye Foundation, 2025) Ucgul, A.Y.; Aktaş, Z.
    Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, necessitating early detection and effective management to prevent vision loss. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized glaucoma care by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, monitoring disease progression, and personalizing treatment strategies. AI models, including machine learning and deep learning algorithms, have demonstrated exceptional performance in analyzing fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, and visual field data, surpassing traditional diagnostic methods. Convolutional neural networks have shown high sensitivity and specificity in detecting glaucomatous changes, while vision transformers and hybrid AI models further refine risk assessment and prognosis. Additionally, AI-powered monitoring systems utilizing multi-modal data integration allow for more precise prediction of disease progression and the need for surgical intervention. The incorporation of AI into telemedicine and wearable intraocular pressure sensors extends glaucoma management to remote and underserved populations. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, including issues related to algorithm generalizability, data standardization, bias, and ethical concerns regarding AI-driven clinical decision-making. To maximize AI’s potential in glaucoma care, further interdisciplinary research, regulatory oversight, and multi-center validation studies are needed. By addressing these challenges, AI can be effectively integrated into clinical practice, leading to improved early detection, enhanced treatment strategies, and more personalized patient care. The future of AI in glaucoma management holds great promise, paving the way for a more data-driven and patient-centered approach to combating this sight-threatening disease. © 2024 The author(s).

    Evaluating Peripapillary Vessel Density and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome: A Comparative Study
    (Gazi Eye Foundation, 2025) Aribas, Y.K.; Aktaş, Z.; Segewa, A.; Segawa, Asadu
    Purpose: To evaluate the changes in the peripapillary vessel density and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness changes in pseudoexfoliation syndrome compared to healthy controls. Methods: The changes were studied in thirty eyes of thirty patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome using optical coherence tomography angiography. Peripapillary vessel densities and peripapillary nerve fiber layer thicknesses were used to compare the optic nerve head characteristics in eyes with PSX and twenty-five healthy control eyes. Results: Average, superior, and inferior RNFL thicknesses were similar in both groups (p:0.055, p:0.052, p:0.116 respectively). Eyes with PSX had lower VD values compared to healthy control groups in peripapillary, superior, and inferior segments. (p:0.011, p:0.013, p:0.017 respectively). There were significant positive correlations between RNFL thickness and peripapillary vessel density in their corresponding sectors except for inferotemporal and temporal superior sectors. (p<0.05 except inferotemporal and temporal-superior sectors) Conclusion: In this study, peripapillary vessel density was found lower in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome compared to age and systemic co-morbidity matched control group. These findings suggest that reduced peripapillary vessel density which may lead to ischemia might cause vulnerability to glaucomatous damage at the optic nerve head. However, further research needs to be done to establish whether the reduction of vessel density is associated with the progression to the pseudoexfoliation glaucoma and increased vulnerability to the glaucomatous damage. © 2024 The author(s).
