Abstract This study focused on patients with advanced open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and aimed to identify key factors for monitoring them. We included 127 such patients who were followed for seven years or more, undergoing annual ophthalmic examinations. Glaucoma progression was defined as a deterioration in either structure or function. The progression rates and risk factors were evaluated. The patients were divided into upper- and lower-half subgroups based on the reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP) from the baseline. Over an 11-year period, glaucoma progression was detected in 59 eyes (46.5%). The rate of change in mean deviation (MD) was − 0.43 dB/year for the entire population; − 0.67 dB/year for progressors; and − 0.20 dB/year for non-progressors. Hypertension and disc hemorrhage (DH) were more common in progressors compared to non-progressors (45.8 vs. 23.5%, 11.9 vs. 1.5%; P = 0.008 and P = 0.016). Multivariate Cox’s proportional hazard model revealed that the presence of DH and a better baseline MD were associated with glaucoma progression. Additionally, patients with a higher percentage reduction in IOP (> 20.94%) had a lower risk of progression compared to those with less reduction. Inadequate IOP reduction, better baseline MD, presence of DH, and lower central corneal thickness were identified as risk factors for progression in advanced OAG patients. |
