1 point

Latanoprost

Timolol

Trabecular bypass stenting

Selective laser trabeculoplasty

Trabeculectomy

2) Which of the following is a risk factor for disability from glaucoma? *

1 point

Non-compliance to treatment

Visual field progression rate of -2dB per year

Living to an old age

Advanced visual field loss at presentation

All of the above

3) Which of the following is NOT available as Minims in NZ? *

1 point

Pilocarpine

Timolol and Bimatoprost combination (GANFORT)

Latanoprost

Bimatoprost

All of the above are available as Minims in NZ

4) Which of the following statements with regards to preservatives is INCORRECT? *

1 point

Benzalkonium chloride is a detergent

Corneal cells have a greater affinity for Purite than bacterial cells

Boric acid is less cytotoxicity than benzalkonium chloride

SLT and MIGS are alternative options for patients with preservative allergy

Preservative ocular toxicity leads to poor adherence and thus poorly managed glaucoma

5) Which of these anti-glaucoma drugs can treat cystoid macula oedema in retinitis pigmentosa? *

1 point

Brimonidine

Brinzolamide

Latanoprost

Timolol

None of the above

6) Which of the following is LEAST likely to cause steroid related IOP elevation? *

1 point

Prednisolone acetate eye drops

Dexamethasone eye drops (Maxidex)

Oral prednisone

Loteprednol eye drops (Lotemax)

All of the above are highly likely to cause steroid related IOP elevation

7) Which of the following statements is INCORRECT with regards to netarsudil (Rhopressa)? *

1 point

ROCK stands for Rho-kinase

NET stands for norepinephrine transporter

ROCK inhibition relaxes the trabecular meshwork, increasing outflow

ROCK inhibition increases episcleral venous pressure

NET inhibition reduces fluid production

8) Which of the following statements is INCORRECT with regards to sustained drug delivery systems? *

1 point

Degradation products of biodegradable implants are always well tolerated

Sustained release formulations increase adherence and thus clinical outcomes

Intracameral implants eliminate ocular surface toxicity caused by preserved eye drops of the same drug

The drug release duration can be altered by changing the polymer composition

The iDose implant is based on a MIGS device filled with travoprost

9) Which of the following can reduce the quality of an OCT scan result? *

1 point

Cataract

Poor ocular surface

Vitreous opacities

Small pupils

All of the above

10) The best definition of the sensitivity of a diagnostic test is: *

1 point

Proportion of subjects with a diagnosis who are correctly identified by the test

Proportion of subjects without a diagnosis who are correctly identified by the test

Probability that subjects with a positive screening test truly have the disease

Probability of a person who has the disease testing positive divided by the probability of a person who does not have the disease testing positive

Chance that the patient has the disease, estimated before the test result is known
