Glaucoma is a multifactorial degenerative optic neuropathy that can progress at variable rates and afflict all age groups. It is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. The disease is commonly divided into 2 major subtypes, open angle and angle closure. Diagnosis of glaucoma is made by a combination of identifying characteristic changes of the

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.

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 ...

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 nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1) gene are associated with PXF glaucoma in many patient populations, including
