THE ROLE OF THE LOCAL AND GENERAL SOMATIC FACTORS FOR THE OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA DEVELOPMENT IN PATIENTS WITH EYE MANIFESTATIONS OF PSEUDOEXFOLIATION SYNDROME

Офтальмохирургия, 2015
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) is one of the best known triggers of glaucoma. The development of the open-angle glaucoma only in some patients with the PES with definite local and general risk factors requires a further research.Purpose.

Retinal oxygen saturation and retinal vessel diameter in glaucoma patients before and after trabeculectomy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare retinal vessel oxygen saturations and diameters before, 1 and 3 months after trabeculectomy. Methods Retinal oxygen saturations and vessel diameters were obtained using retinal oximetry. The effect of the postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) decrease on the arteriovenous difference (AV‐difference) was evaluated ...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Optic Nerve Traction During Adduction in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma With Normal Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]

, 2017
PurposeWe used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to ascertain effects of optic nerve (ON) traction in adduction, a phenomenon proposed as neuropathic in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).MethodsSeventeen patients with POAG and maximal IOP ≤ 20 mm Hg, and

Prognostic factors of optical coherence tomography angiography in intermediate and advanced primary open‐angle glaucoma: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Conventional optical coherence tomography (OCT) has a floor effect in patients with severe visual field loss, such as seen in advanced primary open‐angle glaucoma (POAG). OCT angiography (OCTA) does not suffer from such a floor effect. However, which OCTA parameters are most useful for monitoring longitudinal progression is unclear.

Risk of open angle glaucoma due to tumor necrosis factor alpha gene polymorphisms

Electronic Physician, 2016
Introduction: Axonal degeneration and retinal ganglion cell apoptosis in glaucoma is associated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), which is an important pro-inflammatory cytokine.

Imaging of the Lamina Cribrosa using Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography. [PDF]

, 2012
The lamina cribrosa (LC) is the presumed site of axonal injury in glaucoma. Its deformation has been suggested to contribute to optic neuropathy by impeding axoplasmic flow within the optic nerve fibers, leading to apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells. To

Impact of mono‐ or multitherapy on ocular surface health and quality of life after 5 years of follow‐up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS)

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To evaluate the impact of initial mono‐ versus multitherapy on the ocular surface and related quality of life after 5 years follow‐up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS). Method The study included patients with primary open‐angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma who completed 5‐year follow‐up in GITS.

Protein misfolding and mitochondrial dysfunction in glaucoma

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Elevated intraocular pressure caused by restricted outflow of the aqueous humor leads to the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons.
