Corneal thickness in congenital glaucoma.
Central corneal thickness is very important measurement in glaucoma treatment because it influences the eye pressure measurements. A thinner cornea gives us artifactually lower intraocular pressure and a thicker cornea gives higher intraocular pressure reading, so it has to be corrected in both cases. The aim of this study is to compare central corneal thickness between congenital glaucoma pati...

We propose that the decision to perform primary trabeculectomy in primary and secondary congenital glaucoma reduces the effect which the many variable findings in surgical anatomy may have on the outcom...

متن کاملMitochondrial DNA analysis in primary congenital glaucoma
PURPOSE To screen mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) for nucleotide variations in primary congenital glaucoma (PCG). METHODS The entire coding region of the mitochondrial genome was amplified by polymerase chain reaction from 35 PCG patients and 40 controls. The full mtDNA genome except the D-loop was sequenced. All sequences were analyzed against mitochondrial reference sequence NC_012920. RESULTS ...
