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.

Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

Journal of Gerontological Nursing, 2011
Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy that is usually associated with an elevated intraocular pressure. Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the most common type of glaucoma and is progressive and bilateral but typically asymmetric in patients. Studies have shown that reducing intraocular pressure reduces the risk of vision loss.

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

2013
Primary open-angle glaucoma is a hereditary disease which alters the evacuation of aqueous humor, in the trabecular area. This alteration causes an increase in the intraocular pressure at pathological rates, which after some time causes anatomical damage to the optic nerve and functional damage to the visual field: characteristic of glaucoma.

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

Jurnal Ilmiah Kedokteran dan Kesehatan, 2023
Glaucoma is a group of neurooptic diseases that has one feature in the form of progressive optic nerve damage caused by increased intraocular pressure, characterized by abnormalities or atrophy of the optic nerve papillae, the presence of glaucomatous excavations, as well as visual field disturbances and blindness.

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

2010
Glaucoma is a significant global health problem. As of the year 2000, 67 million people worldwide were affected with “primary” glaucoma. Of these patients, 6.7 million were bilaterally blind. Glaucoma is second only to cataracts as a cause of blindness worldwide. In the United States, where glaucoma accounts for 11% of all cases of blindness, it is the

La Revue du praticien, 2019
Primary open-angle glaucoma. Primary open-angle glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy with characteristic morphological changes at the optic nerve head and retinal fiber layer in the absence of other ocular disease. The diagnosis is difficult and based on conjunction of elevated intraocular pressure (inconstant) loss of retinal fiber layer and ...

Genetics of primary open angle glaucoma

Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease and one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness, affecting over 60 million people worldwide. At the present time, glaucoma is clinically defined, but the exact etiology is unknown. Genetic studies are one approach to identify the molecules and pathways involved in disease pathogenesis.
