Childhood Glaucoma Surgery Outcomes with 2-Year Follow-Up

A prospective cohort study with a 2-year follow-up period, comparing 24 glaucomatous eyes to 24 age-matched normal controls. The dataset contains quantitative measurements from fundus photographs, including vessel diameters, cup-to-disc ratios, rim widths, and parapapillary atrophy morphology. It was authored by Miao Zhang and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between intraocular pressure reduction and paradoxical vessel narrowing based on postoperative measurements.
• Predicting optic cup reversal based on preoperative disc hemorrhage and parapapillary atrophy regularity index.
• Analyzing correlations between inferior rim widening and cup reversal using the reported R-squared value.

Strengths

• Includes a 2-year prospective follow-up, providing longitudinal data.
• Reports specific quantitative results, such as IOP reduction from 32.11 ± 8.36 to 14.30 ± 2.55 mmHg.
• Contains a matched control group of 24 normal eyes for comparison.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small at 20.1 KB, indicating limited scope.
