ABSTRACT Background and Aims Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, with a disproportionate burden in Sub‑Saharan Africa. Identifying sociodemographic and clinical determinants is critical for early detection and prevention. This study identified glaucoma risk factors in Ghanaians and evaluated their prognostic significance ...

A computational model for retinal haemodynamics under gravitational and postural variations
Abstract figure legend The haemodynamic impact of gravitational and postural changes on the retina, and its relevance to spaceflight associated neuro‐ocular syndrome (SANS), remains incompletely characterized. This study assesses retinal haemodynamics from upright to head‐down tilt using a lumped‐parameter model that dynamically couples intraocular ...

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness and vision loss in the world. Although intraocular pressure (IOP) is no longer considered the only risk factor for glaucoma, it is still the most important one.

LAMINA CRIBROSA IN GLAUCOMA: BIOMECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND POSSIBILITIES OF THEIR CLINICAL CONTROL
The literary review presents an analysis of modern views of the biomechanical properties of lamina cribrosa (LC) in glaucoma. It is shown that LC deformations in glaucomatous eyes are connected with their morphological and structural disorders at macro ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the clinical value of intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements obtained by owners in dogs predisposed to primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). Materials and Methods Owners of 14 dogs with eyes predisposed to developing PACG obtained IOP measurements with a TonoVet Plus from the time of diagnosis of PACG until they developed ...

Ocular biomechanics study: current state and perspectives
Despite the fact that the eye represents a challenge for biomechanical research due to its size, over the last two decades, much data on ocular biomechanics were accumulated.

Racioethnic differences in the biomechanical response of the lamina cribrosa [PDF]
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world with a higher prevalence in those of African Descent (AD) and Hispanic Ethnicity (HE) than in those of European Descent (ED). The objective of this study was to investigate the pressure dependent biomechanical response of the lamina cribrosa (LC) in normal human donor tissues ...

Peripheral Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment in Straatsma Syndrome: A Case Report
Introduction Straatsma syndrome is a rare congenital condition classically defined by the triad of persistent myelinated retinal nerve fibers, ipsilateral axial myopia, and amblyopia. Although generally regarded as a stable developmental anomaly, growing evidence suggests that eyes with Straatsma syndrome may harbor clinically relevant abnormalities of
