The results were further characterized for coauthorship links and visualized by VOS viewer software. Also, the top 25 cited articles were reviewed with the above bibliometric characteristics.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n One thousand two hundred and sixty-nine items were obtained from our search query from 1955 to 2022; these received 15,485 citations, originated from 78 countries. The top-3 contributing countries were the United States of America (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 369), India (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 134), and China (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 127). LV Prasad Eye Institute (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 58), Duke University (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 44), and King Khalid Eye Specialist Hospital (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 42) were the top-3 productive institutes. The top-3 prolific authors were Mandal AK (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 53), Freedman, SF (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 36), and Sarfarazi, M (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 33).

The top-25 cited documents received 3564 citations and were published between 1977 and 2016. The key areas of interest were basic sciences (genetics of childhood glaucoma) and surgical management.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n United States of America, LVPEI, Mandal AK, and \u201cInvestigative Ophthalmology\u201d were the top rankers as far as the productivity and publications related to PG are concerned.
