Occurrence of pseudoexfoliative material in parabulbar structures in pseudoexfoliation syndrome

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1991
Abstract The blind and painful left eye of a 88‐year‐old woman was enucleated and examined by light and transmission electron microscopy. Three years earlier, after unilateral pseudoexfoliation syndrome with advanced open angle glaucoma of the left eye had been diagnosed, argon laser trabeculoplasty and pars plicata diathermy were performed.

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.

Clinical Signs of the Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Ophthalmology, 1986
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) is a common cause of glaucoma throughout the world. It is most commonly diagnosed after the observation of pseudoexfoliation material (PXM) on the anterior lens surface. However, there are numerous clinical signs of PXS that should alert the examiner to search carefully for PXM on the anterior lens surface.

Electroneuromyographic findings in pseudoexfoliation syndrome

International Ophthalmology, 2017
To examine peripheral electroneuromyographic findings in patients with ocular pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) and to compare them controls without PEX.A case-control study design was used to examine 31 patients with PEX and compare the findings with those of 31 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.

Preclinical Diagnosis of Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1987
Although the diagnosis of pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) is made by observation of pseudoexfoliation material (PXM) deposited on the anterior lens capsule, there are several additional signs related to pigment dispersion that are often present both in eyes with PXS and fellow eyes in unilateral cases.
