Primary open-angle glaucoma

The Lancet, 2004
Primary open-angle glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy and, perhaps, the most common form of glaucoma. Because the disease is treatable, and because the visual impairment caused by glaucoma is irreversible, early detection is essential. Early diagnosis depends on examination of the optic disc, retinal nerve fibre layer, and visual field.

Clear lens extraction in eyes with primary angle closure and primary angle-closure glaucoma

Survey of Ophthalmology, 2020
The crystalline lens plays an important role in the pathophysiology of primary angle closure and primary angle-closure glaucoma. The aging process is associated with a progressive enlargement of the lens, resulting in greater iridolenticular and iridotrabecular contact, which exacerbates both pupillary block and appositional angle closure, irrespective

Journal of Glaucoma, 2009
To compare the Pentacam to ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) or gonioscopy in detecting eyes with primary angle closure (PAC), including PAC suspect and PAC glaucoma.In 72 eyes of 39 Japanese with various anterior chamber angle (ACA) widths, the ACA, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and anterior chamber volume (ACV) were measured using the Pentacam, and the ...

Long-term evaluation of ocular hypertension with primary angle closure and primary open angles

International Ophthalmology, 2018
To evaluate the long-term course of primary angle-closure ocular hypertension and primary open-angle ocular hypertension and possible risk factors for progression to glaucoma.A total of 109 eyes of 109 ocular hypertension (OHT) patients with a minimum follow-up period of 5 years having complete ocular/medical records were evaluated.

[Primary angle closure].

Ugeskrift for laeger, 2021
Glaucoma is the most common cause of irreversible blindness globally with a significant contribution from angle-closure glaucoma. Over the past 20 years, the terminology has been standardised with the term glaucoma being used exclusively for patients with signs of glaucomatous damage to the optic nerve.

HLA in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology, 2009
Histocompatibility antigen typing was carried out in 50 Caucasian patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and 50 Caucasian ocular-normotensive subjects. HLA-A 3 was present in 46%, B7 in 52%, B 12 in 50%, and either B 7 or B 12 in 88% of patients with POAG.
