Ocular Blood Flow and Normal Tension Glaucoma
Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is known as a multifactorial optic neuropathy characterized by progressive retinal ganglion cell death and glaucomatous visual field loss, even though the intraocular pressure (IOP) does not exceed the normal range. The pathophysiology of NTG remains largely undetermined. It is hypothesized that the abnormal ocular blood flow is involved in the pathogenesis of this...
متن کاملSCIENTIFIC REPORT Effect of nimodipine on ocular blood flow and colour contrast sensitivity in patients with normal tension glaucoma
Aim: To investigate the effects of oral nimodipine on ocular haemodynamic parameters and colour contrast sensitivity in patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG). Design: The study was performed in a randomised, placebo controlled, double masked, crossover design. Participants: Nimodipine (60 mg) or placebo was administered to 14 consecutive NTG patients. Methods: The effects or oral nimodipi...

متن کاملPulsatile ocular blood flow investigation in asymmetric normal tension glaucoma and normal subjects.
AIMS This study was designed to investigate pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) in normal tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and in normal controls. NTG patients with unilateral field loss were evaluated to compare POBF values between eyes with and without field loss. METHODS POBF measurements from more than 1500 subjects were collected during a period of 6 months from six optometric centres. Sub...
متن کاملPulsatile ocular blood flow in patients with low tension glaucoma.
Measurements of the intraocular pressure (IOP) pulse and pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) have been made in 22 patients with bilateral low tension glaucoma (LTG) and 29 healthy subjects matched as closely as possible for age, refractive error, IOP, systemic pulse pressure, and heart rate. Recordings were made in both the standing and supine positions. The amplitude of the intraocular pressure...
