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.

Heredity in primary open-angle glaucoma

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000
The past years have seen considerable progress in the characterization of hereditary factors in primary open-angle glaucoma. Epidemiologic studies strengthened our knowledge of the hereditary factors in this multifactorial disease. Several loci in the human genome have been described, which segregate with different glaucoma phenotypes. Mutations of the

Mortality in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma and Exfoliative Glaucoma

European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
Purpose To study mortality among unselected Finnish patients with either primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or exfoliative glaucoma (EG) after a minimum follow-up of 7 years after enrollment. Methods A total of 344 patients with POAG ...

Goniodysgenesis in familial primary open‐angle glaucoma

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1994
Abstract. Results of a pilot study to evaluate goniodysge‐nesis as a cause of familial open‐angle glaucoma are reported. Patients with a familial high tension open‐angle glaucoma and a goniodysgenetic chamber angle (n = 11), a number of their relatives with glaucoma (n = 12), and their relatives without glaucoma (n = 26) were compared to a group of ...

The management of primary open angle glaucoma

Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 1997
Glaucoma is one of the commonest causes of blindness in the world.1 In the UK, about 7% of people over the age of 75 years have primary open angle glaucoma, the most common type of glaucoma2 and the cause of visual impairment in about 13% of those registered blind.3,4 Early detection and treatment can usually prevent blindness.5 However, half of all ...

Quantitative Analysis of Microvasculature in Macular and Peripapillary Regions in Early Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

Current Eye Research, 2019
Purpose: To evaluate macular and radial peripapillary capillary vessel densities (RPC VD) across normal, pre-perimetric (PPG), and early perimetric primary open-angle glaucoma (EG) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).

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.
