Showing 1 to 15 of 40 results for glaucoma

  1. Glaucoma: diagnosis and management (NG81)

    This guideline covers diagnosing and managing glaucoma in people aged 18 and over. It includes recommendations on testing and referral (case-finding) for chronic open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension and on effective diagnosis, treatment and reassessment to stop these conditions progressing.

  2. Serious eye disorders (QS180)

    This quality standard covers the diagnosis and management of cataracts, glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the prevention of sight loss. It describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.

  3. Ab interno canaloplasty for open-angle glaucoma (IPG745)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ab interno canaloplasty for open-angle glaucoma. This involves widening the channel that drains fluid from the eye. The aim is to reduce pressure in the eye.

  4. High-intensity focused ultrasound for glaucoma (IPG661)

    Evidence-based recommendations on high-intensity focused ultrasound for glaucoma in adults. This involves using high-intensity ultrasound to destroy a small amount of the tissue that makes fluid in the eye.

  5. Repetitive short-pulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation for glaucoma (IPG692)

    Evidence-based recommendations on short-pulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation for glaucoma. This involves using repeated short pulses of laser energy to destroy some of the cells in the eye that produce fluid.

  6. Trabeculotomy ab interno for open angle glaucoma (IPG397)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabeculotomy ab interno for open angle glaucoma. This involves using a specifically designed surgical instrument to remove a portion of tissue, with the aim of improving the eye’s drainage pathway.

  7. Trabeculectomy with a biodegradable collagen matrix implant for glaucoma (IPG750)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabeculectomy with a biodegradable collagen matrix implant for glaucoma. This involves cutting a small flap in the white of the eye and putting a patch over the flap to help healing and prevent scarring. Fluid slowly drains out of the flap and the patch dissolves over time. The aim is to reduce pressure in the eye and slow or stop damage to sight.

  8. Trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma (IPG575)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma. This involves inserting a hollow metal tube (stent) into the eye, to improve drainage of fluid from the eye.

  9. The SENSIMED Triggerfish contact lens sensor for continuous 24-hour recording of ocular dimensional changes in people with or at risk of developing glaucoma (MIB14)

    NICE has developed a Medtech Innovation Briefing (MIB) on the SENSIMED Triggerfish contact lens sensor for continuous 24-hour recording of ocular dimensional

  10. Ab externo canaloplasty for primary open-angle glaucoma (IPG591)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ab externo canaloplasty for primary open-angle glaucoma in adults. This involves widening the eye’s main draining canal by inserting a tiny tube, then removing the tube and stitching the canal to keep it open.

  11. Microinvasive subconjunctival insertion of a trans-scleral gelatin stent for primary open-angle glaucoma (IPG612)

    Evidence-based recommendations on microinvasive subconjunctival insertion of a trans-scleral gelatin stent for primary open-angle glaucoma in adults. This involves putting a tiny gelatin tube (stent) under the skin at the base of the eye to create a new drainage channel for excess fluid.

  12. Headaches in over 12s: diagnosis and management (CG150)

    This guideline covers advice on the diagnosis and management of tension-type headache, migraine (including migraine with aura and menstrual-related migraine), cluster headache and medication overuse headache in young people (aged 12 years and older) and adults. It aims to improve the recognition and management of headaches, with more targeted treatment to improve the quality of life for people with headaches, and to reduce unnecessary investigations.

  13. Headaches in over 12s (QS42)

    This quality standard covers diagnosing and managing common types of headache in adults and young people (aged 12 and over). It includes tension-type headache, migraine, cluster headache and medication overuse headache. It describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.

  14. ORA G3 to measure corneal hysteresis (MIB150)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on ORA G3 to measure corneal hysteresis .

  15. Icare rebound tonometer to measure intraocular pressure (MIB57)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on the Icare rebound tonometer to measure intraocular pressure
