Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]

, 2020
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...

Primary open‐angle glaucoma as a marker of upcoming Alzheimer's disease: A 20‐year Danish National Registry‐Based Study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether primary open‐angle glaucoma (POAG) is associated with an increased long‐term risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, given its shared neurodegenerative features. Methods A 20‐year longitudinal, registry‐based matched cohort study was conducted using Danish national health registries from 1998 to 2018. Individuals

Acute angle closure glaucoma following ileostomy surgery

Revista Brasileira de Oftalmologia, 2015
Angle-closure glaucoma can be induced by drugs that may cause pupillary dilatation. We report a case of a patient that developed bilateral angle closure glaucoma after an ileostomy surgery because of systemic atropine injection.

Management of angle closure glaucoma

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2011
Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is equally prevalent in Indian in Asian population as the primary open angle glaucoma. Eighty-six percent of people with PACG are in Asia, with approximately 48.0% in China, 23.9% in India and 14.1% in southeast Asia. To understand PACG, it is mandatory to understand its classification and type of presentation with

Retinal oxygen saturation and retinal vessel diameter in glaucoma patients before and after trabeculectomy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare retinal vessel oxygen saturations and diameters before, 1 and 3 months after trabeculectomy. Methods Retinal oxygen saturations and vessel diameters were obtained using retinal oximetry. The effect of the postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) decrease on the arteriovenous difference (AV‐difference) was evaluated ...

Mesopic microperimetry in Stargardt disease: Application and reliability

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Mesopic microperimetry (mMP) is a promising functional endpoint in clinical trials for Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1). This study evaluated the test–retest variability of mMP and influencing factors, which is essential for ensuring reliability in future STGD1 trials.
