Normal tension glaucoma (NTG), as described by von Graefe in 1857, is a clinical condition in which the optic nerve is pathologically excavated and the visual field (VF) is characteristically disturbed, although the intraocular pressure (IOP) is within the statistically normal range. It may be defined using the criteria from the Collaborative NTG Study

In 1857, von Graefe first advanced the concept of a disease process resembling glaucomatous optic neuropathy in the setting of a normal intraocular pressure (IOP). The ophthalmic community of the time was so strongly opposed to the notion that von Graefe was forced to retract his position.

Normal Tension Glaucoma is known to be a special form of glaucoma which is still a matter of dispute in its etymologic, diagnostic, therapeutic aspects and in its terminology. The diagnosis of normal tension glaucoma is by elimination of other disorders by pachymetry, tonometric curve, neurologic examination and sometimes MRI.

Glaucomas: Managing Normal-Tension Glaucoma
2009Information available in the literature on how to determine the target pressure for a normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patient is scarce. In the Collaborative Normal-Tension Glaucoma Study (CNTGS) [1, 2], there is no clearly defined single intraocular pressure (IOP) level below which an individual eye is completely safe from developing further ...

The diagnosis of normal-tension glaucoma
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1994The diagnosis of normal-tension glaucoma includes optic nerve head and retinal nerve-fiber layer assessment, standard static computerized visual field testing, gonioscopy, and a diurnal (24-hour) intraocular pressure curve. In addition to a careful history to exclude previous phases of increased intraocular pressure, an internal medicine checkup ...

Collaborative Normal Tension Glaucoma Study
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2003Before this study was done, there was a difference of opinion concerning whether intraocular pressure (IOP) was involved in producing optic nerve damage when there was glaucomatous damage to the optic nerve and characteristic visual field loss, even though the IOP was in the statistically normal range.

The Definition of Normal-Tension Glaucoma
Journal of Glaucoma, 1998To evaluate the consistency of the definition of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG).All articles about NTG published between 1973 and 1997 from three clinical journals of ophthalmology were identified by a literature search. They were reviewed to determine criteria used to define NTG, including optic nerve assessment and intraocular pressure (IOP ...

Natural history of normal-tension glaucoma
Ophthalmology, 2001A recently reported randomized study described the role of intraocular pressure (IOP) in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) pathogenesis and the effect of therapeutic lowering of IOP. This is a report of an analysis of the natural course of NTG during the time eyes were not receiving therapy, either in the time interval awaiting randomization or after being

Modern view on normal-tension glaucoma
Vestnik oftal'mologii, 2020Glaucoma is a chronic progressive optic neuropathy that causes irreversible loss of visual functions. From the clinical point of view, normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is regarded in Russian taxonomy as a clinical form of standard primary open-angle glaucoma in which the IOP values stay within the normal range, but the typical progressive visual functions
