Establishing target intraocular pressure in newly diagnosed exfoliation glaucoma patients
This study aimed to determine the appropriate target intraocular pressure (IOP) for patients newly diagnosed with exfoliation glaucoma. The study followed a prospective cohort of newly diagnosed exfoliation patients for three years. The target IOP was defined using three methods to measure visual field deterioration, mean deviation (MD), visual field ...

Selective laser trabeculoplasty as adjunctive treatment in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma patients [PDF]
Introduction/Objective. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is characterized by abnormal production and accumulation of fibrillar, white-gray, “dandruff-like” material in almost all ocular structures. The aim of this study was to examine effect of selective laser

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN SUCCESSFUL THERAPY AND ANXIETY LEVEL OF POST OPERATIVE GLAUCOMA PATIENTS
Background : Glaucoma is a disease that can cause damage to the optic nerve. High intraocular pressure is a major risk factor for glaucoma. The main goal of treating glaucoma is to control the disease progression by reducing intraocular pressure to the ...

Target Intraocular Pressure in the Management of Glaucoma
Achievement of target intraocular pressure is the goal of every efficient antiglaucoma therapy. The value of target intraocular pressure depends on the pretreatment level of intraocular pressure, optic nerve condition, glaucoma disease state, rate of glaucoma pregression, patients age, and other risk factors for the developement of glaucoma.
