Hypertension in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2014
Introduction: The impact of vascular factors in POAG is well known and controversial. Some reports have shown high blood pressure in POAG, some low systolic blood pressure and some described no difference in blood pressure between POAG and controls ...

Micropulse Trabeculoplasty in Open Angle Glaucoma

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2018
Background: We report the effect of micropulse laser trabeculoplasty (MLT) in the intraocular pressure (IOP) of patients with uncontrolled open-angle glaucoma (OAG).

Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma [PDF]

New England Journal of Medicine, 2009
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), by far the most common form of glaucoma, currently afflicts more than 2 million Americans, more than half of whom probably don't know they have it. Asymptomatic in the early stages, it gradually and progressively reduces the visual field and leads to blindness if untreated.

Neuroinflammation in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Increasing evidence suggests oxidative damage and immune response defects are key factors contributing to glaucoma onset. Indeed, both the failure of the trabecular meshwork tissue in the conventional outflow pathway and the neuroinflammation process ...

Three-Decade Evaluation of Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressure in Open-Angle Glaucoma at a Tertiary Care Center

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most prevalent risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma. However, IOP alone does not fully describe a mechanical basis for disease in patients with normal tension glaucoma or primary open-angle glaucoma.

Mitochondrial damage in the trabecular meshwork occurs only in primary open-angle glaucoma and in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma.

PLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundOpen-angle glaucoma appears to be induced by the malfunction of the trabecular meshwork cells due to injury induced by oxidative damage and mitochondrial impairment.

Clinicoepidemiological Profile of Glaucoma in 18-45 Years of AgeA Descriptive Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
Introduction: Glaucoma is a group of disorders characterised by chronic progressive optic neuropathy. The consequences of glaucoma are more severe in the young individuals because of late diagnosis and longer life expectancy.
