Lipofuscin in human glaucomatous optic nerves.
Lipofuscin accumulation has been observed in a number of neurodegenerative diseases. We recently found that autofluorescent particles also occur in the aged human optic nerve. In this study we sought to determine the nature of these particles and their correlation with aging, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Groups of eight optic nerves from patient...
متن کاملAre All Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Defects on Optic Coherence Tomography Glaucomatous?
Objectives In this study, we investigated the patients who were referred to our clinic with a prediagnosis of glaucoma based on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) defects on optic coherence tomography (OCT) but were determined to have nonglaucomatous RNLF defects upon detailed examination. Materials and Methods The ophthalmic examination notes, OCT images, Heidelberg retinal tomography (HRT) II...
متن کاملFiber - Optic Sensing of Linear Thermal Expansion (RESEARCH NOTES)
The use of a LED fiber-optic sensor to measure displacement and linear thermal expansion is described. It has a sensitivity of about 0.6 mV/mm, a resolution of 1.25 mm, and a dynamic rang of 400 mm for displacement measurements. For thermal expansion, it shows a sensitivity of about 3.5 mV/C, and the experimental linear expansion values are in agreement with those calculated. The reported senso...
متن کاملRelationship of optic disc topography to optic nerve fiber number in glaucoma.
OBJECTIVE To assess the relationship between in vivo measurements of optic disc topography and histomorphometric measurements of optic nerve fiber number in glaucoma. METHODS Both eyes of 10 monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) with laser-induced glaucoma in the right eye were studied. Optic disc topography was measured in vivo with a confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope. Histomorphometry was perf...
متن کاملGlaucomatocyclitic crisis and glaucomatous optic neuropathy
Glaucomatocyclitic crisis is a rare disease first described by Posner and Schlossman1 in 1948. The disease is characterized by unilateral recurrent attacks of increased intraocular pressure (IIOP) associated withmild anterior uveitis and an open angle.1,2 It is classified as an inflammatoryglaucoma. In contrast to the commonpresentations of eye pain andnausea in acute angle-closure glaucoma, th...
