    Surgical Treatment of a Patient With Recurrent Bleb Leak and Glaucoma: Bleb Excision Combined With Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy
    (Galenos Publ House, 2022) Boluk, Ceyda Eristi; Aktas, Zeynep
    Here we present a case of intermittent bleb leakage with increased intraocular pressure (IOP) during recovery periods that was treated with gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) combined with avascular bleb excision. A 60-year-old woman exhibiting simultaneous leaking bleb and glaucoma underwent GATT and bleb revision. At her final visit, the bleb leakage had resolved and IOP was under control without any further antiglaucoma medication. GATT may be useful for glaucoma patients exhibiting intermittent bleb leakage after failed trabeculectomy.

    Evaluating Anterior Segment Stability and Corneal Endothelium After Prolene Gonioscopy Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy (gatt) in Open-Angle Glaucoma
    (Springer, 2024) Aribas, Yavuz Kemal; Aktas, Zeynep; Ertop, Mestan
    Introduction This study investigates the short-term effects of prolene gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) on anterior segment parameters and corneal endothelium in patients with open-angle glaucoma. Methods This retrospective study included 30 eyes from 30 patients who underwent GATT surgery. Demographic data, ophthalmological examination findings, and intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements using a Goldman applanation tonometer were recorded. Scheimpflug images were acquired at the pre-operative stage, as well as on the 1st day, 1st week, and 1st month postoperatively. Corneal endothelial cell counts were obtained via specular microscopy. Results The mean age of patients was 60.3 +/- 15.5 years. Anterior chamber depth and central corneal thickness increased on the 1st postoperative day (p:0.002, p < 0.001, respectively). Changes in anterior chamber depth values at the postoperative 1st week and 1st month compared to baseline were not statistically significant. Central corneal thickness decreased significantly at the 1st postoperative month compared to baseline (p:0.007). Corneal endothelial cell counts at the 1st month were comparable to baseline values (p:0.936). Conclusion Our findings reveal that prolene gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy induces temporary changes in anterior segment parameters but preserves corneal endothelial cell count within the first month, suggesting a promising profile for GATT in glaucoma management.

    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).
