SUMMARY:Webinar - Interventional Glaucoma - What Does It Mean For Patients?
DESCRIPTION:In “interventional glaucoma\,” glaucoma is treated with minimally invasive surgeries or interventional procedures much earlier in the disease process. It is a shift away from the way glaucoma was treated years ago\, which typically began with eyedrops and only progressed to surgery at the middle or end of the disease progression. Interventional glaucoma intervenes earlier in the treatment process. \nNathan M. Radcliffe\, M.D. is a highly-experienced glaucoma and cataract surgeon. He was the Director of the Glaucoma Services at Cornell\, and then NYU and Bellevue Hospital\, and currently is Associate Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Radcliffe is unique because he is active in both academic and private practice settings. He is a microincisional glaucoma surgery (MIGS) innovator and instructor and is the Chief Editor of the publication Glaucoma Physician. \nDr. Radcliffe was the first surgeon in New York to offer patients the CyPass Supraciliary Microstent\, the Kahook Dual Blade Goniotomy\, Visco 360 and Trab 360\, the G6 micropulse laser\, and Allergan’s Xen subconjunctival implant. \nDr. Radcliffe has managed some of the most difficult glaucoma and cataract cases from all over the world and is truly able to offer a tailored glaucoma and cataract surgery to his patients\, being able to perform all of the available glaucoma surgeries that are currently FDA approved\, and knowing the procedures and the efficacy and safety data well enough to correlate the optimal procedure with the patient’s disease.

SUMMARY:Webinar - The Role of Genetics in Glaucoma Diagnosis & Prevention
DESCRIPTION:Janey L. Wiggs\, M.D.\, Ph.D. is a physician-scientist at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and Harvard Medical School. She is currently the Paul Austin Chandler Professor of Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School and is the Vice Chair for Clinical Research in Ophthalmology at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. She also directs the CLIA-certified genetic testing laboratory at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and is a co-director of the Ocular Genomics Institute. \nDr. Wiggs received her B.A. and Ph.D. degrees in biochemistry from the University of California at Berkeley and her M.D. degree from Harvard Medical School. She did post-doctoral training in molecular genetics of retinoblastoma under the direction of Dr. Ted Dryja. Dr. Wiggs completed the ophthalmology residency at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and received fellowship training in glaucoma and also in medical genetics and is one of only a few ophthalmologists certified by both the American Board of Ophthalmology and the American Board of Medical Genetics. \nDr. Wiggs was the inaugural chair of the Genetics Group for ARVO and is an ARVO gold fellow.  She currently serves on the editorial boards of IOVS\, JAMA Ophthalmology\, Molecular Vision\, Journal of Glaucoma\, and Annual Reviews in Vision Science. She is a member of the scientific advisory boards for the Glaucoma Research Foundation\, the Glaucoma Foundation\, and Research to Prevent Blindness and is a past member of the National Advisory Council of the National Eye Institute.  She has received the Heed Award\, the Heed/Knapp Award\, the Research to Prevent Blindness Scholar Award\, the AAO Honor Award\, the Lew Wasserman Merit Award\, the Alcon Research Award\, the David L. Epstein award (ARVO)\, Mildred Weisenfeld award (ARVO)\, the Heed-Gutman award and was a winner of the NEI Audacious Goal competition. She has delivered numerous named lectures including the Clinician-Scientist Award lecture (American Glaucoma Society) and the Shaffer Lecture (American Academy of Ophthalmology). She is a member of the Glaucoma Research Society\, the American Ophthalmological Society\, the Academia Ophthalmologica Internationalis a former member of NEI scientific advisory council\, and an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine. \nDr. Wiggs has published 213 original peer-reviewed research investigations as well as 75 reviews\, editorials\, and book chapters.  Her publications have been in top journals including New England Journal of Medicine\, Nature Genetics\, Nature Communications\, American Journal of Human Genetics\, Cell\, Proceedings of the National Academy of Science\, PLoS Genetics\, Human Molecular Genetics and Genetics in Medicine as well as top-tier Ophthalmology journals including Ophthalmology\, JAMA Ophthalmology\, American Journal of Ophthalmology and IOVS. \nDr. Wiggs is a pioneer and international leader in ocular genetics. Her research program is focused on the discovery and characterization of genetic factors that contribute to the blinding eye disease glaucoma and has been continuously funded by the National Eye Institute (NEI) for over 30 years. She is the PI of the NEIGHBORHOOD consortium for Primary open-angle glaucoma genetics and a founding member of the International Glaucoma Genetics Consortium.  She has also participated in research programs funded by the US-INDO joint working group (NEI) and the NEI eyeGENE consortium and is currently the Ocular Domain co-chair for the NIH-funded ClinGen project. \nDr. Wiggs has discovered many novel genes associated with common forms of glaucoma with complex inheritance.  She has led large primary open-angle glaucoma genome-wide association studies and has had critical roles in GWAS studies identifying novel loci for intraocular pressure and for exfoliation glaucoma. She has also directed the only normal tension glaucoma GWAS that identified genomic regions associated with disease risk. She also studies the genetic etiologies of familial types of glaucoma and has recently identified EFEMP1 and THBS1 as causal genes for childhood forms of glaucoma. Ongoing research studies include: a multi-ethnic normal tension glaucoma GWAS; a metabolomics study of blood plasma in exfoliation glaucoma patients and controls; whole genome sequencing of families affected by early-onset forms of glaucoma\, investigations related to contributions of rare variants to primary open-angle glaucoma and evaluation of polygenic risk burden in at-risk populations. \nAn overarching goal of Dr. Wiggs’s research is to use disease-related genes to develop gene-based testing and therapeutics.  Using the retinoblastoma gene\, she developed one of the first genetic tests for human disease and the first genetic test for an eye disease.  This test allowed for the timely identification of carriers of retinoblastoma mutations who would benefit from presymtomatic surveillance. Subsequently\, together with Eric Pierce\, she developed a next-generation-based sequencing test for over 300 ocular disease genes including all the genes known to cause glaucoma. She is currently using data from genome-wide association studies to develop glaucoma tests for early detection of primary open-angle glaucoma based on polygenic risk scores.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Building Connections: Research Progress in Vision-Restoring Therapy for Glaucoma
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\nThe Johnson Laboratory at the Johns Hopkins Wilmer Eye Institute has spent the past 5 years working to develop stem cell therapies capable of regenerating the optic nerve and restoring vision for patients suffering from glaucoma. \nThis is a challenging goal since it requires the replacement of lost nerve cells in the eye and the building of new connections between these stem cell-derived neurons and the patient’s own cells in the retina and the brain. \nFollowing up on last year’s TGF webinar\, Dr. Johnson will present new and exciting developments from his research\, showing that human neurons are able to form new connections with the recipient retina after being transplanted into the eye. This advance represents a major step forward towards eventually developing new treatments for reversing blindness in patients with glaucoma.

SUMMARY:Webinar - How to Save the Sight of Patients with Glaucoma While Minimizing Adverse Reaction from Eye Drops
DESCRIPTION:For patients with glaucoma\, the fact that their disease can be slowed down with pressure-lowering eye drops is unquestionably a good thing. But is there enough focus on the unwanted side effects that come with the daily application of one or more eye drops? \nThis presentation will focus on the ocular surface discomfort that far too many glaucoma patients suffer from. In addition\, examples will be given of ways in which ophthalmologists can stratify the treatments to minimize the individual patient’s adverse effects. All to improve both adherence and quality of life in the growing glaucoma population.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Remote IOP Monitoring: Lessons Learned from a Doctor and a Patient
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Barbara Wirostko FARVO and glaucoma patient Rebecca Vilender talk about the benefits of measuring your IOP at home\, and how you can access an affordable home-monitoring device. \nGlaucoma is a chronic disease that requires chronic monitoring. IOP monitoring is most often based on measurements taken during clinic visits\, necessarily occurring at a specific day and time during business hours\, often months apart. However\, IOP can vary throughout the day and night; spot measurements cannot capture its fluctuations. \nKnowing this\, many physicians want to monitor IOP at various times. The iCare Home offers a tonometer (an instrument for measuring pressure) that can be easily used by patients outside of their doctor’s office hours. Physicians report that\, for some patients\, the iCare Home tonometer has detected dramatic and potentially dangerous spikes in IOP that they did not capture during office visits. Detecting these IOP spikes\, prior to progression\, may enable earlier intervention\, more accurate treatment\, and better outcomes. \nNow\, you can rent or buy an affordable iCare Home tonometer with a prescription from your physician. Dr. Barbara Wirostko\, founder of MyEyes\, will talk about the process\, and a patient who has used the iCare Home will demonstrate its use and tell us how she benefitted from monitoring her IOP throught the day.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Using Artificial Intelligence to Disentangle Glaucoma Pathogenesis
DESCRIPTION:This video is from our March 15th Zoom where Dr. Louis Pasquale discussed how artificial intelligence will impact glaucoma prevention and treatment. \nPrimary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a disease subtype defined by chronic\, progressive\, and irreversible retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss without clinically evident causes for either elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) or optic nerve degeneration. Globally\, there are currently 53 million POAG cases\, with projections of 80 million cases by 2040. These staggering statistics are a clarion call to find cost-effective strategies for glaucoma prevention and treatment. This talk will provide an overview regarding our approach to leverage artificial intelligence in large cohorts containing a wealth of biomarker and environment data to meet these challenges and reduce ocular morbidity due to glaucoma. \nLouis R. Pasquale\, MD is is the Shelley and Steven Einhorn Distinguished Professor of Ophthalmology and Site Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at Mount Sinai Hospital. He is Vice Chair of Translational Ophthalmology Research at Mount Sinai Healthcare System. \nDr. Pasquale is a member of the PLOS One\, Journal of Glaucoma\, Ophthalmology Glaucoma\, Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology\, and American Journal of Ophthalmology editorial boards. He currently serves as Glaucoma Trustee for ARVO and is a member of the National Institute of Health’s National Advisory Eye Council. \nAn NIH Principal Investigator with continuous support since 2006\, his research leverages the rich resources available in the Nurses Health Study\, Health Professional Follow-up Study and the Women’s Genome Health Study\, and focuses on the discovery of primary prevention strategies in the open-angle glaucomas. \nPhysicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical\, device and biotechnology companies to improve patient care\, develop new therapies\, and achieve scientific breakthroughs.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Glaucoma: Seeing the Light at the End of the (Nano)Tunnel"
DESCRIPTION:At the lab of Dr. Adriana Di Polo at University of Montreal\, researchers are paving the way for the development of therapeutic approaches to protect pericytes and their nanotubes. The goal?  Restoring vascular health and vision in glaucoma. \nIn living animals\, as in humans\, the retina uses the oxygen and nutrients contained in the blood to function properly. This vital exchange takes place through capillaries\, the thinnest blood vessels in all organs of the body. Pericytes are small cells that wrap around capillaries. A pericyte can control the amount of blood passing through a single capillary simply by squeezing and releasing it. \nIn this webinar from April 4\, Dr. Di Polo presented new findings from her laboratory demonstrating the critical role that pericytes play in vascular dysfunction in glaucoma. A key discovery is that inter-pericyte tunnelling nanotubes\, thin nanotubes by which pericytes communicate with each other\, are damaged in glaucomatous eyes contributing to the death of retinal neurons. Strategies that restore calcium equilibrium in pericytes are effective to rescue vascular function and promote neuroprotection. This work paves the way for the development of therapeutic approaches to protect pericytes and their nanotubes with the goal of restoring vascular health and vision in glaucoma.

SUMMARY:Webinar - What do cold hands have to do with glaucoma?
DESCRIPTION:Learn about Flammer’s Syndrome with Josef Flammer\, MD and patient Hillary Golden \nIn 2020\, Hillary Golden went to see an optometrist to treat a stye. She was completely surprised when the doctor was more concerned about her optic nerve. She was diagnosed with normal tension glaucoma (NTG). Hillary had lost a good amount of visual field already and was immediately referred to a glaucoma specialist.  While researching NTG\, she kept coming across something called Flammer Syndrome. She fit the patient profile\, so she read study after study to learn more.  This led her to reach out to Dr. Josef Flammer\, whom the syndrome was monikered after\, to gather more information.  She sent an email\, not expecting a reply\, and was delighted when she heard back from Dr. Flammer himself. \nHillary speaks publicly about her diagnosis\, how glaucoma affects patients in everyday life\, and how she manages her disease. Her career has included sales and training of medical devices\, imaging equipment\, and computer guided surgical navigation. She is currently a clinical consultant in the glaucoma space. \nDr. Josef Flammer is a Swiss ophthalmologist with a specialty in glaucoma. He is an emeritus director of the Eye Clinic at Basel University Hospital. Dr. Flammer was one of the first researchers to demonstrate systemic side effects of locally administered beta-blockers (i.e. eye drops) in ophthalmology. He and his collaborators found that intraocular pressure variation is as important for the development of glaucoma as a constantly elevated intraocular pressure – long considered the main\, if not the only\, cause of glaucoma. In numerous research projects\, he demonstrated that glaucoma could be caused by a dysregulation of ocular blood flow\, even at normal levels of intraocular pressure. Flammer discovered that vasospasms in the eye are a manifestation of a general vasospastic syndrome. Later\, he noted that such spasms are only the tip of the iceberg and an indication of a much more generalized vascular dysregulation in the human body\, increasing the risk of eye disease\, particularly of normal tension glaucoma. Dr. Flammer noted that people with primary vascular dysregulation have other symptoms and signs\, leading to the establishment of the term Flammer Syndrome. Among many other discoveries\, he also demonstrated the relationship between eye disease and heart disease.At the Basel Eye Clinic\, Dr. Flammer initiated one of the most renowned annual conferences for ophthalmologists in Europe\, the Basel Ophthalmo Meeting. In addition to hundreds of original papers\, he is the author of  “Glaucoma\,” a book intended for the general public which has so far been published in 22 languages. It is considered the world’s most widely used non-fiction book on this ocular disease.
