Choroidal Circulation in Glaucoma: I. Bio-haemo-photometry in Chronic Open-angle Glaucoma.
As blood thickness depends on the concentration of blood cells in the vessels, the measurement of the thickness of the choroidal blood (which can now be done accurately by our bio-haemo-photometric method) facilitates the study of the choroidal circulation. The present communication reports the results of applying this method to the study of glaucomatous eyes, especially those with chronic open...
متن کاملPhotostress recovery in chronic open angle glaucoma.
Photostress recovery time was measured in 30 eyes from 15 patients with chronic open angle glaucoma, and 30 eyes from 15 individuals of a similar age group with no ophthalmological disorder. The average recovery time in patients with glaucoma was 70.47 (SD 35.39) seconds. The average recovery time in the control population was 41.97 (SD 17.34) seconds. This difference was statistically signific...
متن کاملOptic nerve and choroidal circulation in glaucoma.
PURPOSE To investigate the circulation of the optic nerve head and choroid in patients with glaucoma. METHODS Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to determine optic nerve head relative blood velocity (ONVel), volume (ONVol), and flow (ONFlow) in 19 primary open-angle glaucoma patients and 15 age-matched healthy control subjects. In each subject, determinations were obtained from four sites on th...
متن کاملScreening of CYP1B1 Arg368His as predominant mutation in North Indian primary open angle glaucoma and juvenile onset glaucoma patients
In India, mutations in Cytochrome P450 (CYP1B1) are a predominant cause of not only primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) but also involved in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and juvenile onset glaucoma (JOAG). After ethical clearance, 100 POAG patients, 30 primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) patients and 130 ethnically matched controls were recruited in this study. Genomic DNA was is...
متن کاملA prospective comparison of chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma versus primary open-angle glaucoma in Singapore.
INTRODUCTION To describe the optic disc, visual field and ocular characteristics of a consecutive cohort of Asian patients with chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG), and compare them with those having primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS In a prospective comparative case series of new patients with POAG or CPACG in Singapore, all patients underwent visual acuity assessment, s...
