	GLAUCUS : Greek sea god merman ; mythology : GLAUKOS
		Aeschylus, Fragment 19 Glaucus Pontios (from Scholiast on Pindar, Pythian 1.
		That Glaukos was a fisherman, who, on eating of the grass, turned into a deity of the sea and ever since has foretold to men the future, is a belief generally accepted; in particular, sea-faring men tell every year many a tale about the soothsaying of Glaukos.
		That Glaukos is a fish as to the rest of his body is made evident by the tail, which is lifted and bent back toward the waist; and the part of it that is shaped like a crescent is sea-purple in colour.

		Glaukos' Lycian contingent never came close enough to us, and for that I’m glad.
		Despite the clamor of battle, I could see our men occasionally looking in Glaukos’ direction, straining to see who was causing such a fuss.
		Later in the day we were on the periphery of another such battle brought on by the Dardanians, but I didn’t even get to swing my sword in that one.

	New Surgical Procedures: Glaucoma Service Foundation: Chat Highlights
		Another bypass of the trabecular meshwork into Schlemm's canal (also known as the canal of the sclero-corneal junction) is the Glaukos iStent.
		The downside is not as low an IOP as is achieved with trabeculectomy, but there is no bleb to thin and later be subject to leaks or infections.
		The EyePass was disappointing in that although the next morning the patient didn't even feel as if she had had surgery, the IOP never went lower than 18 mm Hg and gradually rose to 23 mm Hg, when a second trabeculectomy was needed.
