Glaucomas: Neovascular Glaucoma
2009Topical and oral medical therapies are the initial treatment of choice to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) and limit vision loss and pain secondary to neovascular glaucoma (NVG).

Publisher Summary Glaucoma is not a disease in itself but a symptom-complex occurring in a variety of pathological conditions with the characteristic sign of raised intra-ocular pressure common to them all. This increased tension is caused in one of three ways: (1) an increased pressure in the intra-ocular capillaries causing congestion and increased ...

Glaucoma is the second commonest cause of blindness worldwide, after cataract. Recent developments include new topical antihypertensive drugs and anti-scarring drugs in glaucoma surgery. Improved techniques for imaging the optic nerve are enabling early diagnosis and identifying progression of disease.

Clinical evidence, 2002
Glaucoma is characterised by progressive optic neuropathy and peripheral visual field loss. It affects 1% to 2% of white people aged over 40 years and accounts for 8% of new blind registrations in the UK. The main risk factor for glaucoma is raised intraocular pressure, but 40% of people with glaucoma have normal intraocular pressure and only 10% of ...

Glaucomas: Glaucoma and the Cornea
2009From the glaucoma specialist’s standpoint, the cornea has generated a great deal of interest since the Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study (OHTS) highlighted the importance of central corneal thickness as a risk factor for glaucoma development. The cornea has always been important though, because a compact and transparent cornea is necessary for a ...

Glaucomas: Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma
2009The identity of the material proteins responsible for PXF glaucoma is not known [1]. However, genetic risk factors for the development of PXF material and PXF glaucoma have recently been identified [2]. Single Ânucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1) gene are associated with PXF glaucoma in many patient populations, including

Canine and feline glaucomas are commonly presented as ocular emergencies. Glaucoma is a common cause of vision loss and a frustrating disorder in terms of medical and surgical treatment. Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) is a significant risk factor in the disease, leading to damage of the retina and optic nerve head. IOP measurement and gonioscopic
