Pharmaceutical Approaches to Normal Tension Glaucoma [PDF]
Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is defined as a subtype of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in which the intraocular pressure (IOP) values are constantly within the statistically normal range without treatment and represents approximately the 30–40% of ...

Update on normal tension glaucoma
Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is labelled when typical glaucomatous disc changes, visual field defects and open anterior chamber angles are associated with intraocular pressure (IOP) constantly below 21 mmHg.

Normal-tension glaucoma (Low-tension glaucoma)
Glaucoma is now considered an abnormal physiology in the optic nerve head that interacts with the level of intraocular pressure (IOP), with the degree and rate of damage depending on the IOP and presumably the degree of abnormal physiology.

Predicting the development of normal tension glaucoma and related risk factors in normal tension glaucoma suspects [PDF]
This study investigated the predicted risk factors for the development of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) in NTG suspects. A total of 684 eyes of 379 NTG suspects who were followed-up for at least 5 years were included in the study. NTG suspects were those

Normal-Tension (Low-Tension) Glaucoma [PDF]
Normal-tension glaucoma, also known as low-tension glaucoma, is defined as glaucomatous damage to the optic nerve and visual fields with normal diurnal values of intraocular pressure (IOP). The term 'low-tension glaucoma' is not often used because in most patients with normal-tension glaucoma, the IOP is within the higher range of normal values and ...

Cognitive functions and normal tension glaucoma
Purpose: Only a few studies have analyzed the potential link between glaucoma and cognitive function impairment. They have found controversial results. This study aims to perform quick cognitive function assessment with clock drawing test (CDT) using two

Comparison of OCT and HRT Findings Among Normal, Normal Tension Glaucoma, and High Tension Glaucoma [PDF]
Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) measurements obtained with the optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the Heidelberg retina topography (HRT) in normal, normal tension glaucoma (NTG), and high ...
