Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) - despite advances in prevention and medical treatment options - remains prevalent among older adults, often resulting in functional losses that negatively affect the mental health of older adults. In particular, the prevalence of both anxiety and depression in patients with AMD is high. Along with medical treatment options, low vision rehabilitation and AMD-specific behavioral and self-management programs have been developed and have demonstrated effectiveness in improving the mental health of AMD patients. This article reviews the prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients with advanced AMD, discusses potential mechanisms accounting for the development of depression …

BACKGROUND
The Boston Keratoprosthesis Type 1 (KPro) is a surgical device used in patients who have failed traditional corneal transplant treatment or are poor candidates for it.1 Candidates for KPro often have advanced anterior segment disease that predisposes them to developing glaucoma.2 As a result, these patients may require both a KPro, to treat their corneal pathology, and a glaucoma drainage implant (GDI), to treat their glaucoma. To date, there have been no long-term studies comparing the order of GDI placement with KPro surgery and how it affects surgical outcomes.
