Apolipoprotein E Genotypes in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma

Journal of Glaucoma, 2010
Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome, an age-related, systemic, elastic microfibrillopathy, is characterized by fibrillar-granular deposits in the anterior segment of the eye. Although not representing a true amyloidosis, PEX syndrome shares some features with amyloid disorders, such as Alzheimer disease.

Pseudoexfoliative Fibrillopathy in Visceral Organs of a Patient With Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1992
Evidence is increasing that pseudoexfoliative material develops in widespread areas of skin and parabulbar tissues as well as intraocularly. To determine whether this process is even more diffusely distributed, ultrastructural examination was performed on visceral and ocular tissues of a patient with long-standing glaucoma found to have bilateral ...
