"My cats love these. They are quick and simple to make. For anyone unfamiliar with the yarn that is suggested for the pattern, it is a fingering weight, 4 ply yarn that is 100 percent cotton. I used worsted weight and a 3.5mm hook for mine, so I wouldnt have to worry about the cats pulling the stuffing out through any holes."

"What does (K1. Inc 1 st in next st.) mean? I think st means stitch, but I don't understand how to do what it says. Thank you "
"This is absolutely stunning! I love it. I love vintage China and this is one way to display it. For my own personal taste I would use less pieces in the back, or even paint the background to make it pop more, and use the broken pieces on,y around the border as a type of frame. But that's just me. Alternatively, using less cups and just feature a ew with the broken pieces may set them off better. But all in all this is a great idea and display! Love it!"

My first technique allowed me to play around with a colorful design as it is created with individual chevrons. I punched several chevrons from multiple colors to piece together into one design. Here's how to make your own. Trim a 1.5 inch strip from cardstock and use a ruler to draw a line down the center on the back of strip.
Feed the strip diagonally into the XL Block Party squeeze punch until the corners reach the opposite side of the square design without clipping the corners. Be sure to line up the drawn center line with the corner of the square punch. Continue feeding the strip into the punch centered with the corner as shown to punch your desired number of the chevrons. Adhere the assorted chevrons onto white cardstock to form the colorful pattern. You can also use all one color to achieve a more traditional look.
Next up is a technique I created using paper braiding that has become one of my favorites. Not only because it's just plain fun to make, but it adds a lot of texture to the design!
To make your own chevron braid, you will need two gray and two yellow strips of cardstock. These can be whatever width you wish, but make sure each braid is the same dimension so the designs will match up when placed together. For this card, my strips were one half inch each.
Adhere gray and yellow strips perpendicular onto second gray strip as shown. Adhere second yellow strip perpendicular onto previously adhered strips as shown. Fold right gray strip over to left side, being sure to line up with the left strips. Repeat with the left gray strip over to the right side. Continue with next color always making sure to keep your strips lined up. Create more braids and adhere side-by-side to create chevron design.
My take on an ikat chevron pattern would be beautiful as an art piece in your home or on a very special card or project. It's easy to make but does take a little time and patience since you are working with lots of small strips.
To make your own ikat chevron design, cut half inch strips of orange cardstock and adhere evenly onto pink cardstock as shown. It is very important that you cover the back of the strips completely in adhesive so when cut up, all small pieces will stay as they are. Cut up your design into even, thin strips. You can see from the demo photo that I used the edge of the cutting bar as a guide for cutting my strips. Adhere the thin strips side-by-side onto another piece of cardstock with each strip moved up slightly from the previous for five columns and then move back down continuing the pattern.
This next chevron technique is super quick to make! Using a tear edger to cut your strips creates a cool, distressed look.
I tore my strips very carefully to keep from tearing too much and affecting the design. Tear in small sections along a length of cardstock. Move the tear edger down in even amounts and continue carefully tearing strips until you have enough to piece together your design.
When working with small projects, such as tags, you may want to create a much smaller chevron pattern. Pinking Paper Edgers work perfectly for this.
Cut several times evenly along a piece of cardstock as shown, keeping the strips connected to the page until you are ready to adhere your design. Be sure to begin cutting each strip at the same spot on the scissors so your chevrons line up. Cut off one strip at a time to adhere onto the tag, leaving equal space between each strip. Trim off excess with scissors along tag.

trickling water sound in the drain
we had a water system installed last year and in the past few months i have been noticing that in our kitchen drain you can here water draining a trickle sound. i want to know if this is a normal thing ? i know that the brine tank is supposed to drain late at night but i didn't think it was to drain all the time.
any help or advice would be nice. the system is a Hague i am not sure of spelling.
Water trickling noise through the drain system when everything is supposed to be off usually indicates a leaking toilet flapper.
would the toilet not refill?

Palo Alto, Calif. Red Cross War Memorial Childrens Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa, has chosen Lucile Packard Childrens Hospital at Stanford to aid in nurse retention.
The two hospitals are planning an ongoing nurse exchange project to reduce the number of nurses migrating out of developing countries. While retaining nurses in South Africa is difficult for numerous reasons relatively low pay, difficult social issues, and crime and safety concerns those involved in the partnership hope to foster professional development opportunities, enhance job satisfaction, and support the clinical care of South African children, according to a Packard Childrens press release.
The partnership is being sponsored by a grant from Medtronic, a medical technology company, to Childrens HeartLink, an international medical nonprofit organization.
Sandra Staveski, NP, a pediatric cardiac intensive care nurse practitioner at Packard Childrens, initiated the relationship with the South African hospital more than two years ago, after traveling to India for a medical mission.
Red Cross War Memorial Childrens Hospital the only freestanding childrens hospital in sub-Saharan Africa chose Packard Childrens because of its previous experience volunteering with Childrens HeartLink, said Andreas Tsakistos, the international programs coordinator for Childrens HeartLink, in the Packard Childrens press release.

When I walked into my first spinning class this past spring, I had no idea what to expect — other than, you know, the fact that I'd be riding a stationary bike. I had no idea how to make sure the bike fit my height or how to adjust the resistance. I took my first class with a good friend, and she walked me through the whole thing before the instructor got started. She made sure I was completely comfortable every step of the way. With that first class, I fell deep in love and haven't stopped since.
If you frequently take spin classes, you know that you work your muscles hard, and what better way to finish off a tough workout than with some great stretches? Here are some of my personal faves!
First things first, before you even step off the bike, try a good long calf stretch. If you're using the shoe cages on the Spinning bike, stand up straight and allow one heel to drop down at a bit. Hold it in that position for 30 seconds, and then repeat on the other side. There are just some stretches that hurt so good — this is one of them.
Next up, try the Front Thigh Stretch. Once off the bike, stand straight and kick your leg back behind you, wrapping your hand around the top of your foot and pulling up toward your butt. This will pull those tight thigh muscles that you just worked, and it will feel fabulous.
Another great one is the Expanded Leg Stretch. While standing, spread your legs very wide and bend forward at the waist, reaching your hands down to the floor. Go only as far as you can comfortably go, but aim for placing your hands flat against the floor. Hold for 30 seconds and feel the burn.
If you have the space, my next favorite is the Downward Facing Dog. This is an all-around stretch and will help elongate your spine and open the hips. Just ensure that you're pushing your heels into the floor or you won't feel the full effects of the stretch.
If your inner thighs are feeling tight, try the Standing Glute Stretch and Hip Opener. While standing, use your bike for balance and bend your knee and cross your leg over the opposite leg and gently push down on your knee; hold for 30 seconds. The position of your legs will be just like the image below, but instead of putting your hands on the floor, hold on to your bike for balance as you really push back to feel that stretch. Switch and repeat with your other leg.

Rihanna risks nip slip in unbuttoned dress, meets Jennifer Lawrence in Paris
On any other person, Chanel's loose, long-sleeved, floor-length, ivory-hued shirt dress would have looked fashion forward, and yes, also a bit conservative. But on Rihanna, who wore the item to Chanel's fashion show on July 2 at Paris Fashion Week Haute-Couture, the dress became downright immodest.
Credit the singer's unique styling: The 25-year-old star wore the semi-sheer gown, button-down garment open, nearly down to the belly button, to expose her cleavage. There were no signs of a bra, but some critics pointed out there were hints of a nipple ring.
PHOTOS: Rihanna's most memorable nude moments
Just two buttons held the dress together at the navel so that her legs were nearly completely exposed. Prim two-toned pumps and a quilted handbag, both by Chanel, and strings of pearls offset the bordering-on-lewd ensemble. Her hair, worn in loose waves and dyed a pretty red, and natural-looking makeup completed the odd look.
"Went straight to the Chanel Couture show early this morning with NO SLEEP!!! It was so worth it!!!" Rihanna tweeted after the show.
PHOTOS: Rihanna through the years
The night before, Rihanna wore a midriff-baring but more modest ensemble while out to dinner. Clad in a cropped black tank and tight pink skirt, the "Diamonds" singer had a starry run-in with Jennifer Lawrence! "Bumped into the extraordinary Jennifer Lawrence at dinner! #Paris" she tweeted, along with an Instagram shot of the two posing together.

Where should this go? I'm not feeling it in "Creature Shop Movies," since it was actually an anthology series, one episode of which had Creature Shop involvement. It's really more like the Muppet appearances on other shows. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 02:04, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
- It's just as much a Creature Shop Movie as The English Patient. — Scott (talk) 02:07, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
- You're missing my point. The English Patient was released theatrically. This was a one-hour episode of a TV series. At least Gulliver's Travels and such were TV movies; even if broken up for airing, they were released on video as one production. So again, how should this be categorized? I'd rather see it in Category:Creature Shop TV Shows, though even that's a bit imprecise, since it implies that the whole series was a Creature Shop production. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 02:17, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah. It just sort of galls me since it's rather like the Muppets appearance on The Cosby Show, or perhaps more precisely, Our Place (where they were regulars and an integral part of the show, but which wasn't strictly a Muppet TV series). But I doubt there'll be enough entries to justify a "Creature Shop Appearances" category (unless Hoggle is released from the baggage store and starts making the talk show rounds), so yeah, I guess that will have to do. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 02:32, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

One thing that can put a serious cramp in your wedding joy is too many last minute no-shows. Whether we're talking about vendors, guests or members of the bridal party, no-shows are a big bummer. When you're dealing with too many last minute no-shows, these tips may be helpful.
When hiring your vendors, one of the most important things to do is to inquire about what happens if someone is sick or unable to make it to the wedding. You want to be doubly sure that the vendor is prepared for the worst - whether it's a DJ, the officiant or the caterer. Aside from ensuring there aren't too many last minute no-shows by having a plan B with each vendor, keep a few others on hand incase you need to replace the no-show. This is why it's important to interview a few different vendors for each position and note your 2nd or 3rd choices incase your 1st doesn't show.
Sometimes it can seem like guests forget their RSVP cards until a week or a few days before the wedding. This can be really frustrating. However, it can give you the opportunity to invite others that you may have left out previously due to budget or location capacity. If you only have a few days to go before the wedding, an invitation will probably not make it. Give these guests a phone call and let them know that it has come to your attention that they were not invited. Ask them personally if they would like to attend and give them any other needed information such as apparel guidelines, whether or not to bring a guest and similar topics.
Bridal Party
The chances that you will have too many last minute no-shows in your bridal party are slim; after all, these are your closest friends and family. However, if it does happen at the last minute, it's probably too late to replace them. This is especially true if dresses or tuxes have already been ordered. You may have to simply accept the guests you know are coming and leave it at that. Don't be too hard on the no-shows, though, at least until you're sure of their reasoning.
Last minute no-shows can be really frustrating and discouraging. However, the guests and vendors will not affect how happy you are with your new husband. Take heart in that and enjoy your beautiful day.

Happy Quilting,
Oooh Gena - I really like it.
I agree with Judith about it bringing the calming turquoise back in. I also think it sets the stage very well for the next round.
Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans.
And here is the side-by-side
Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans.
You all are so amazing. That is the perfect thing to add and even tho it's simple, it's striking and as was said, lays the perfect platform for the next round.
I don't know if I will ever be ready to join one of these RRs, but I surely am enjoying watching!!!

I believe UFOs are like scraps, ferns and dust bunnies. Once you get two, they send spores out into the air and more just happen anywhere the spores meet.
dragonfly nana: I love what you've done with my center!!! Very pretty!
I've been very busy finishing some UFO's-I finished my mom's KING size coverlet. Here I was trying to make it lighter weight as my mom didn't like how "heavy" her other quilt was (it had "warm & natural" batting and a lot of quilting which did weigh it down!). I put flannel on the back and just did enough quilting to hold it together. But, it seems it is still heavy! (hoping it works for her once on the bed. I think it is heavy because of all the thread used to piece all the
blocks and using flannel on the back; plus, I think having the very long 25" drop makes it heavy.
I've also been quilting and finishing some UFO lap quilts for Christmas gifts (2 tops for 2007 and 2008!).

yaya, I loveeeeee your mother's quilt and the borders you added to give that drop. Those fabrics are so pretty and add the size without detracting from the lovely sampler top. Great job!!!

We went to New York from 5th to 16th january 2016, in the John's flat, to visit.
The flat is very well located, with the subway; No problem to go tro a place. We recommand this flat for that!
However, we don't recommand it for the reception! We didn't see John or anybody. We had to guess how we open the bathroom !!
In the other hand the flat was very clean all trip long.
Thank you.
Location in Little Italy is perfect for a NY trip. Room was nice, clean and cosy. But: place was fully booked, so in total 8 people stayed there. There's only one bathroom to share with all. So first come, first serve every morning. Cleaning is done every other day. Also only 4 chairs and a small sofa. Not all rooms have windows. This didn't come out in the description.
The room was clean but he didn't write that house has 4 room (up to 12 people) with only one WC! Shower temp. Regulator doesn't work. WC is moving when you sit down. Room for 4 people too small (no space for opening luggage)
The topic "gemütliches nettes Zimmer" means "cosy bedroom" is a description which does not fit with the reality. Very small room (as described with no window), two paople could sparely store their luggage and hang a shirt. Sparely possible to open the door when somebody is standing in the room and luggage is stored.No window in the whole appartment exept in one room. No fresh air in the room, the ventilation was insufficient, so it was pretty hot at night. Very thin walls, so every talk in the rooms besides could be heard. Later we did change the location for the shower should be repaired, the other location was better.
Great location. Very simple and small apt. The location is wonderful as you atre on the green subway (just 5 mints) and you can go up and doqn. John was nice leaving us till 5, instead of 11.30, with no extra payment.
We have just arrived at home. We have spent a week in this apartment. The beds are comfortable to rest and the room was really clean. The rest of the apartment is not as big as we imagined taking a look to the photos. It is really well comunicated with the rest of Manhattan. We didn't see Mike a lot, but he was kind when we met. The building is not really nice but it is not a bad place to spend a days in NY.
Host did not show his/her face once.. not at the start and not at the end.. even did not text me back after leaving the appartment. Room (and bed) was much smaller than the pictures. Bathroom also was not what I had expected. All in all, not the best stay I've had. But it's very cheap and the location is excellent.
Thank you so much! Great place to stay during your visit, recommend it! . Great host!!
I fyou're looking for a shabby room in a noisy area , with a shared bathroom with eleven other people (good luck cleaning your teeth in the morning after a stranger has just been in the bathroom!), andif your lucky, no windows in your bedroom, then this is the place for you. The air conditioning is really noisy, so keepsyou awake, and if its not that, then it will be the loud music from next door. If thats what you're looking for, you.ll love this place. The lift ourside has a unique odor to it too, so really welcoming. And don't be confused, the white clean bedsheets on the website, may not be there to make the rooms look bigger, but i promise, it's the same room you booked. If you're not hapy with it make sure you use the wholeof your first day trying to resolve the situation, because if you don't, the proprietor, or Wimbdu, wont helpyou. You may have to move location completely. Happy holiday!
the apartment was great! it was clean and nice, everything was arranged well. The neighbours were very quite and the apartment is well situated.

Al Jaffee, Sam Viviano, Arie Kaplan, Arnold Roth, Danny Fingeroth speak at MoCCA on Thursday, February 23rd from 7-9pm!
Admission $7 (cheap!), and FREE (even cheaper!) for MoCCA Members
Press Release:
The Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art – MoCCA – is proud to present a special MoCCA Thursday honoring Al Jaffee and the release of his recent 4-volume set of THE MAD FOLD-IN COLLECTION from Chronicle Books, featuring all of Jaffee's fold-ins from 1964-2010!
Joining Jaffee himself on a panel to talk about the origins and development of this unique artform will be MAD Art Director SAM VIVIANO, who has been personally involved with many of Al's Fold-Ins; MAD writers ARIE KAPLAN and MAD artist ARNOLD ROTH, moderator DANNY FINGEROTH, as well as some super-special surprise guests!
The MAD Fold-In Collection will be on sale at the event, courtesy of publisher Chronicle Books, including a few rare sets of The MAD Fold-In Collection: Gift Pack, featuring a special limited edition bookplate signed by Al Jaffee, retailing for the same price as the regular version of the Collection.
About THE MAD FOLD-IN COLLECTION GIFT PACK:
Al Jaffee's fold-ins, on the inside back cover of virtually every issue of MAD Magazine since 1964, have become an icon of American humor. Generations have grown up with Jaffee's inspired skewerings of our foibles and cultural conundrums. Issue after issue, each Fold-in requires the reader to simply fold the page so that arrow A meets arrow B to reveal the hidden gag image, a simple idea that masks both undeniable artistic ingenuity and comic timing. In this deluxe four-volume set, each of the 410 fold-ins is reproduced at its original size, with a digital representation of the corresponding "folded" image on the following page (so collectors won't have to "fold" their book to get the jokes). Featuring insightful essays by such luminaries as Pixar's Pete Docter and humorist Jules Feiffer, The MAD Fold-In Collection i s the definitive gift for the millions of fans who've grown up with MAD for nearly 60 years.
AL JAFFEE is the creator of some of MAD's most popular features, most notably the Fold-In and "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions." His work first appeared in the magazine in 1955, and he has since won a Reuben Award, a National Cartoonists Society Advertising and Illustration Award, and a Humor Comic Book Award. A biography, Al Jaffee's Mad Life, was published in 2010. Written by Mary-Lou Weisman, it includes more than 70 new illustrations by Al. Despite repeated requests, Jaffee refuses to retire, and is frighteningly active, including still doing the Fold-Ins for MAD.
SAM VIVIANO began illustrating for MAD in 1980. Over the following two decades, he became one of the "Usual Gang of Idiots," doing everything from movie parodies and comic strip rip-offs to digitally-created cover illustrations. In a desperate attempt to get his artwork out of the pages of the magazine, in 1998 the editors suggested that Viviano get a Real Job. He is currently Art Director of MAD.
ARIE KAPLAN is a MAD Magazine writer, and author of From Krakow to Krypton: Jews and Comic Books, for which he interviewed Al Jaffee, among many others. As a comic book writer, Arie has written for DC Comics, Archie Comics, Bongo Comics, IDW Publishing, and Papercutz. He has written video games, including one based on the hit TV series, House. His website is www.ariekaplan.com.
ARNOLD ROTH has done cover art for albums by Dave Brubeck, Louis Prima, and Pete Seeger. Arnold's work has appeared in and on TV Guide, Sports Illustrated, Esquire, and The New Yorker. Arnold was introduced to Kurtzman's MAD by Brubeck's Paul Desmond and was part of Kurtzman's Trump, Humbug and Help. He was a regular contributor to the National Lampoon, and, for twenty years, to Punch. His books include Arnold Roth: Free Lance; Poor Arnold's Almanac, and The Collected Humbug (all from Fantagraphics Books).
DANNY FINGEROTH is MoCCA's Sr. VP for Education. He was a longtime editor and writer for Marvel Comics. He's written books about comics including Superman on the Couch, and is the co-editor (with Roy Thomas) of the recent The Stan Lee Universe, which features, among many other nifty items, an interview with Jaffee, and correspondence from Stan Lee about Al. Danny's educational course at MoCCA, "How to Write Comics and Graphic Novels," starts February 28th. You can contact him at: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Comments Off on GA – MAD Artists Speak at SCAD
Al Jaffee, Sergio Aragones, Jack Davis, Paul Coker Jr, and more speak at SCAD on Saturday, November 12th, 2011 from 5:00PM – 6:30PM!
Press Release:
The Savannah College of Art and Design and the Southeast Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society will present "IT'S A SCAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WEEKEND," a special weekend celebration of the enduring influence of MAD Magazine's cartoonists from Nov.11–13 at locations throughout SCAD in Savannah, Georgia.
Highlighting this conference will be "A SCAD, MAD, MAD, MAD Discussion," a panel discussion with some of the original artists from MAD on Saturday, Nov. 12 from 5–6:30 p.m. at the Trustees Theater, 216 E. Broughton St., Savannah, Georgia. This panel will be free and open to the public.
"SCAD and the sequential art department are both honored and excited about the historical significance of hosting MAD Magazine artists with the National Cartoonist Society, Southeastern Chapter," said SCAD sequential art chair Anthony Fisher. "This is truly a unique opportunity for students to meet and learn form master artists who have contributed to the advancements in the art form of sequential art and defined cultural satire for nearly 60 years."
Self-dubbed "The Usual Gang of Idiots," the legendary cartoonists scheduled to appear on the panel include:
· Jack Davis. Davis was one of the original cartoonists for MAD in 1952. He illustrated the very first story in the very first issue of MAD.
· Al Jaffee. With his first piece in 1955, Savannah-born Jaffee is MAD's longest-running freelance contributor. He is best known for creating one of the magazine's trademark features, the MAD fold-in. Every issue since April of 1964 has featured a Jaffee fold-in.
· Paul Coker, Jr. Coker has been a contributor to MAD since 1962 and has appeared in over 300 issues.
· Nick Meglin. Meglin is a former editor of MAD Magazine, a position he held for over thirty years.
· 'Duck' Edwing. Edwing began his career with MAD in 1961 and wrote Spy vs. Spy for about 12 years, along with his own feature, Tales from the Duckside.
· Sergio Aragones. Aragones has been at MAD since 1963. He distinguished himself with his "Marginal Thinking" strips, which were printed up, down, across, and around the corners of comic panels to fill in the margins.
· Sam Viviano. Viviano began his MAD career as a freelance artist and while still illustrating articles also currently serves as MAD's art director.
· Tom Richmond. Richmond has been a regular contributor to the magazine since 2000.
This esteemed group of artists will also be working with SCAD sequential art students in workshops and portfolio reviews.
MAD was created in 1952 by the brilliant artist and writer Harvey Kurtzman and maverick publisher William M. Gaines. The magazine quickly became known for its satirical look at all aspects of life and popular culture, politics, entertainment, and public figures. It's been called revolutionary, subversive, surreal, hilarious, and a total waste of time. (The latter by its own editors).

Brought to you by Medina Vision and Laser Centre
Glaucoma is a serious, lifelong eye disease that can lead to vision loss if not controlled. But for most people, glaucoma does not have to lead to blindness. That is because glaucoma is controllable with modern treatment, and there are many choices to help keep glaucoma from further damaging your eyes. Treatment cannot reverse damage that has already occurred, but it can prevent further vision loss.
January has been declared as National Glaucoma Awareness Month by Prevent Blindness and other leading eye health organizations. Prevent Blindness seeks to educate the public on the second leading cause of blindness (behind cataracts) by providing free resources via online or by mail through its "Glaucoma Learning Center." Visit www.preventblindness.org/glaucoma-learning-center for free information on risk factors, symptoms and treatment options.
For example, glaucoma risk factors include:
Age: Those that are 40 and older are more likely to develop glaucoma. The older you are, the greater your risk.
Race: People of African or Afro-Caribbean heritage are more likely to get glaucoma than the rest of the population. They are also more likely to develop glaucoma at a younger age.
Family History: If you have a parent or sibling who has glaucoma, you are more likely to develop the disease.
Diabetes: People with diabetes have a higher risk (40 percent) of developing glaucoma.
Nearsightedness: People who are very nearsighted are at greater risk.
Eye Injury or Surgery: Those who have had eye surgery or eye injuries may develop secondary glaucoma.
Steroid Medication: Steroids may increase the risk of glaucoma when used for extended periods of time.
Prevent Blindness has recently put together free fact sheets to help answer common questions about health insurance, Medicare coverage for glaucoma, the Affordable Care Act and eye care. These may be found at www.preventblindness.org/health-insurance-and-your-eyes.
"Although there is currently no cure for glaucoma, the damaging effects can be reduced if diagnosed and treated early," said Hugh R. Parry, president and CEO of Prevent Blindness. "Our vision should always be a top priority, and the New Year is a great time for a resolution to make sure our eyes are healthy with an eye exam!"
What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is an eye disease that causes loss of sight by damaging a part of the eye called the optic nerve. This nerve sends information from your eyes to your brain. When glaucoma damages your optic nerve, you begin to lose patches of vision, usually side vision (peripheral vision). Over time, glaucoma may also damage straight ahead (central) vision. You may not notice a loss of side vision until you have lost a great deal of your sight. When checking for glaucoma, eye doctors usually look for damage to the optic nerve and any loss of side vision. They may also check your eye pressure.
Glaucoma is often called "the sneak thief of sight." That's because people usually do not notice any signs of the disease until they have already lost significant vision. Once lost, vision can't be restored. More than 2.7 million Americans age 40 and older have open angle glaucoma, the most common form of glaucoma. At least half don't even know they have it.
What are the Different Types of Glaucoma?
There are many types of glaucoma. Often, the cause of high pressure in the eye can help tell the type of glaucoma and the best treatment for it. The most common types include:
Chronic (Open Angle) Glaucoma
This is the most common type. In open angle glaucoma, aqueous fluid drains too slowly and pressure inside the eye builds up. It usually results from aging of the drainage channel, which doesn't work as well over time. However, younger people can also get this type of glaucoma.
Normal Tension Glaucoma
This is a form of open angle glaucoma not related to high pressure. People with normal tension glaucoma may be unusually sensitive to normal levels of pressure. Reduced blood supply to the optic nerve may also play a role in normal tension glaucoma.
Acute (Angle Closure) Glaucoma
Those of Asian and Native American descent are at higher risk for this form of glaucoma. It occurs when the drainage system of the eye becomes blocked. It causes a sudden rise in pressure, requiring immediate, emergency medical care. The signs are usually serious and may include blurred vision, severe headaches, eye pain, nausea, vomiting or seeing rainbow-like halos around lights. Occasionally, the condition may be without symptoms; similar to open angle.
Secondary Glaucoma
Secondary glaucoma is the result of another eye condition or disease, such as inflammation, trauma, or tumor. For information about uveitis, an inflammation that can cause secondary glauoma, visit www.preventblindness.org/uveitis.
How Does Glaucoma Damage My Eyes?
Doctors don't know exactly how glaucoma damages the optic nerve. For many people, increased eye pressure seems to play an important role.
Your eye produces a watery fluid (aqueous humor), which goes into the eye and drains out. When your eye is healthy, the fluid drains through a mesh-like pathway and into the bloodstream. Aqueous fluid is produced by the ciliary body. It flows through the pupil and behind the clear cornea. Finally, it drains away through the trabecular meshwork.
For some people, fluid can't drain properly because of a faulty drainage system. Drainage that once worked well may gradually slow down as you get older. A sink that becomes clogged backs up with water. When there is no place for excess fluid to go, pressure inside the eye builds up.
This increased eye pressure may damage the optic nerve over time. Slowly, the nerve fibers that are essential for vision die.
For others, glaucoma damages the optic nerve without increased pressure. These people may be unusually sensitive even to normal levels of pressure. Their glaucoma may also be related to problems with blood flow in the eye. Doctors continue to study eye pressure and other possible causes of glaucoma.
Different people experience glaucoma differently. Usually, glaucoma affects side vision (peripheral vision) first. Late in the disease, glaucoma may cause "tunnel vision." In this condition, the person can only see straight ahead. That's why someone with glaucoma can have good straight ahead (central) vision. However, even central vision can be seriously damaged.
How Do Eye Doctors Check for Glaucoma?
There are three major signs that a person may have glaucoma:
•Optic nerve damage
•Increased eye pressure (elevated intraocular pressure).
•Vision loss(visual field loss)
Your eye doctor will check your eyes using some of these tests:
Ophthalmoscopy The doctor will place a few drops in your eye to open or dilate the pupil. This allows the doctor a clearer view to inspect the optic nerve at the back of the eye.
(Credit: National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health)
Photography or Optic Nerve and Retinal Imaging or laser scanning may be used to show the appearance of the optic nerve inside your eye. This allows the doctors to physically take a photograph of upt 75% of the inside of your eye for later comaprisons.
To learn more about our Optomap Exam, visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaLrF4Jg-h0 (this is a really good video)
Tonometry measures pressure in the eye. Medicine drops are used to numb the eye. An instrument gently presses on the outside of your eye. Pressure is shown as a number followed by the abbreviation "mm Hg." This stands for "millimeters of mercury," a standard measure for pressure. An average pressure is about 16 mm Hg. Still, a higher than average number doesn't always mean you have glaucoma. Since the thickness of the cornea (the front window of the eye) may affect the pressure reading and the risk of glaucoma progression, your doctor may measure this as well. Pressure can also be measured by non-contact tonometry, also known as the air puff test.
Perimetry evaluates your visual field. This tests your vision all around your field of view to see if any areas are missing. It usually involves staring straight ahead at a light and trying to see lights that appear around the sides of your view. This is generally done with a computerized system.
Gonioscopy After numbing the eye, the doctor gently places a special lens on the surface to examine the area in the front of the eye that drains fluid. Gonioscopy allows a more accurate diagnosis of the type of glaucoma.
How Do Eye Doctors Treat Glaucoma?
Glaucoma can usually be treated and controlled using medicine(s), laser surgery, glaucoma surgery or a combination of these treatments. Medicines (eye drops) are typically the first step in treatment, but laser surgery may be just as effective as a first choice. Your treatment is up to you and your doctor. In this section, you will learn about your options for treatment.
Treating Glaucoma with Medicines
Eye doctors use many medicines to treat glaucoma. These drugs lower pressure inside the eye. Often, people with glaucoma must take these medicines for life to control the pressure and limit vision loss.
An introduction to glaucoma medicines:
Glaucoma medicines are usually in the form of drops, but also come in pills or ointment. They work to lower the amount of aqueous fluid produced and/or improve fluid drainage in the eye.
All glaucoma medicines may cause side effects, some of which can be uncomfortable. A few side effects can be quite serious, but those side effects are not common.
The glaucoma medicines listed below are grouped by the way they work. Some of the possible side effects are also listed. Not every drug in a category will have all the possible side effects listed. Your doctor can tell you which side effects are possible with the medicines you use.
Remember, you and your doctor must work together to determine the best medicines for you.

Glaucoma Laser Surgery
Some people may need eye surgery to control their glaucoma. Lasers are very useful for treating glaucoma because they avoid cutting and have a lower chance of complications (compared to glaucoma surgery).
There are three common laser procedures.
Peripheral iridotomy:
A peripheral iridotomy is most often used to treat narrow angle or angle closure glaucoma. The laser beam creates a tiny hole in the colored part of the eye (the iris). This lets the pressure in front of the iris become the same as the pressure behind the iris. As a result, the iris moves away from the drainage angle and the aqueous fluid can resume draining normally.
People usually don't feel any pain with these procedures, although some report a slight stinging. Most patients take it easy the day of their treatment, but go back to their normal routine the following day.
Many people need to keep taking medicines even after laser surgery.
Laser surgery is usually successful, but there are some risks. These include a temporary, generally short-term increase in eye pressure, temporary inflammation of the eye, and possibly a slightly increased risk of developing cataracts.
Glaucoma Surgery:
If medicine or laser surgery does not relieve eye pressure, a patient may need glaucoma surgery. There are several options.
Filtering surgery:
Filtering surgery creates a new path through the eye's tissues to let fluid drain from the eye.
In the most common filtering surgery, called a trabeculectomy or a sclerostomy, the surgeon makes a small opening in the white part of the eye (the sclera) to create a new outflow path. The fluid then flows through the new opening and creates a bleb, which is like a small bubble or reservoir on the surface of the eye. The bleb holds the fluid while it is slowly absorbed into the surrounding tissue. The upper eyelid usually hides the bleb, so it's not noticeable to you or others.
Most people who have this procedure no longer need medicine after surgery. Some people treated still need medicine, but they have better pressure control after the surgery. About 15 percent do not benefit from filtering surgery.
An alternative type of glaucoma surgery may occasionally be performed in which the tissues over the drainage area are thinned but not fully penetrated. This procedure may produce fewer complicatons than trabeculectomy, but also may be less effective in achieving low intraocular pressures.
Drainage implant surgery:
Drainage implant surgery is sometimes performed when a person is not suited for filtering surgery or when earlier filtering surgery has failed. Depending on the kind of implant used, the surgery is called valve, shunt or seton surgery.
In these procedures, the surgeon inserts a tiny tube through the sclera into the front part of the eye behind the iris. This tube becomes a path for fluid to drain away. The other end of the tube is attached to a tiny reservoir that acts like the bleb to hold fluid until it is absorbed into the surrounding tissue. The reservoir is placed on the surface of the eye, back between the eye muscles, so it is not visible.
Right after filtering or drainage implant surgery, a person may have a temporary decrease of vision. Vision usually improves over several weeks to its previous level. It also takes time to recuperate from either form of surgery. For example, in the weeks after surgery, people often must avoid getting water into their eyes, reading, bending, lifting heavy objects and driving.
Canaloplasty is a newer procedure to lower pressure that is performed within the eye wall but that does not actually pentrate the eye. While this procedure is safer that filtering surgery, it does not provide as profound a reduction in IOP.
Minimal Invasive Glaucoma Surgeries:
Minimal Invasive Glaucoma Surgeries are a set of newer FDA approved procedures that lower pressure. These approaches currently include Trabectome and the iStent. Both of these approaches work by bypassing the blockage in the drain of the eye to help fluid flow through the natural drain and do not require "artifical" pathways for fluid drainage to areas outside the eye. Like canaloplasty, the procedures are less risky than filtering surgery but do not provide as profound a reduction in IOP. More long-term data is needed to determine how well they work beyond the first few years. Use of Minimal Invasive Glaucoma Surgeries is still being debated among glaucoma specialists but may have application is specific patients.
Laser Cyclophotocoagulation:
Laser Cyclophotocoagulation is used for severe cases of glaucoma. It eliminates tiny areas of the ciliary body that make aqueous fluid. This "turns down the faucet." Laser cyclophotocoagulation requires a numbing block to the eye to prevent pain with the procedure.
Risks of glaucoma surgery:
Glaucoma surgeries have some possible risks, such as:
A higher chance of getting cataracts
Infection or leaking of the incision
Too low pressure
Hemorrhages inside the eye
Unfortunately, the new drainage path can close, causing pressure in the eye to rise again. Filtering surgery can be repeated with good results. Also, drainage implants are often successful in patients whose filtering surgery has failed. The medicines that reduce inflammation and control scar formation after surgery have helped increase the success of glaucoma surgeries.
Treating Glaucoma with Laser SurgeryDetails:
Some people may need eye surgery to control their glaucoma. Lasers are very useful for treating glaucoma because they avoid cutting and have a lower chance of complications (compared to glaucoma surgery). Read More details about these surgeries can be found at http://www.preventblindness.org/glaucoma-surgery
Taking Eye Drop Medications
About the NLO technique:
When an eye drop is placed in the eye, some of it exits through the tear drainage system called the nasolacrimal duct, located at the corner of the eye near the nose. The drug then passes through the sinuses, and is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. Unpleasant side effects can occur when the drug reaches other parts of the body, such as the heart, liver or kidneys. Side effects from some eye medications can include asthma, low blood pressure, high blood pressure, changes in heart rhythm, depression or nervousness.
A simple technique, called nasolacrimal occlusion, or NLO, can prevent the drug from flowing into the drainage duct. That keeps more medicine in your eye and makes the drug more effective. The step-by-step instructions on how to apply the NLO technique can be found at: http://www.preventblindness.org/taking-eye-drop-medications
Living With Glaucoma
You must work with your eye doctor if you have glaucoma. Eye doctors know how to treat glaucoma, but they have to work with you to find the best way to treat your disease.
What you do makes a difference
• Remember to take notes. Write down your questions
so you can make the most of your eye doctor visits.
• Explain to your eye doctor how the medicines you are taking affect you.
• Tell all of your other doctors about your eye medicines and all other drugs you're taking.
• Read more about glaucoma and how to live with it.
• Tell the eye doctor about any changes in your physical condition, any changes in your medicine or any

Even if surgery or drugs lower pressure in your eye, it's still possible to lose vision. Therefore, you and your doctor must carefully monitor the disease.
Since you will be visiting your eye doctor regularly, take time and care in choosing a person who you are comfortable with. Your doctor should understand that your questions and concerns are important. A doctor who is willing to work with you, listen to your concerns and provide the best treatment, plays a large part in your success against glaucoma.
You have to help save your sight
You may need medicines every day for the rest of your life. Find support and encouragement from your family, friends and others. Sometimes it helps to talk to people who have experienced the same thing. It can help you to discuss side effects, share ways to remember your medicines and celebrate getting your glaucoma under control.
Unfortunately, there are a few people whose eyesight will continue to get worse, despite doing all the right things to control their glaucoma. Doctors aren't sure why this happens, but research in this area continues.
The future holds great promise for treating glaucoma. New medicines are being developed. Other treatments may soon become available. In the meantime, take heart in knowing that you're doing everything possible to treat your glaucoma successfully. The doctor/patient team approach, support from others and promising scientific discoveries will help you look forward to a bright future.
Questions for your eye doctor
You will have many questions as your doctor diagnoses and treats your glaucoma. It's helpful to keep a list of these questions, especially if they come to mind in between your eye appointments. Write all your questions down and bring the list with you, then discuss them with your doctor. Here are some questions many people have:
• What do these medicines do?
• How much will they cost? Will my insurance help pay
for them? (These may be questions for your insurance company, not your doctor.)
• What are the possible side effects of my medicines?
• Can I do anything to lower the chance of side effects or reduce the effects?
• What should I do if I miss a dose?
• Will I need surgery? What are the benefits and drawbacks of laser surgery? Of glaucoma surgery?
• What will my vision be like after surgery?
• How long will recovery take? How will I need to change my usual activities? Will I be able to drive? Go to work?
• Would I still need medicine after surgery? The same doses?
• How often will I need return visits?
• What is the latest research on glaucoma and its treatment?
• Are there any other treatments that may be right for me at this stage of my disease?
Medicare benefits and your eyes
Eye Health is Important!
As you age, your risk for vision impairment and vision loss grows. Because some vision-threatening conditions are not readily noticeable, it is important that you preserve your vision by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and having an eye exam through dilated pupil every 1-2 years or as recommended by your eye doctor. Half of all blindness can be prevented through early detection and treatment.
Medicare beneficiaries, especially those at risk for or diagnosed with a variety of diseases, are entitled to a number of vision-related services. It is especially important for people with diabetes, a family history of glaucoma, or those who have suffered an eye disease or injury to be aware of and utilize these benefits.
