Correlation between Macular Changes in Exfoliation Syndrome and Exfoliative Glaucoma.
The aim of the study was to evaluate macular thickness and macular volume in unilateral and bilateral exfoliation syndrome and to compare them with exfoliative glaucoma and control eyes using optical coherence tomography. This prospective study included 114 subjects (228 eyes) divided into 4 groups according to the presence of exfoliation: 30 patients with unilateral syndrome, 24 patients with ...
متن کاملLOXL1 gene sequence variants and vascular disease in exfoliation syndrome and exfoliative glaucoma.
PURPOSE To investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the LOXL1 gene associated with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and exfoliative glaucoma (XFG) are different in XFS/XFG patients with and without cardiovascular disease (CVD); and to compare the allele frequencies in XFS/XFG with those in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (stroke), in the Hungarian population. METHODS G153D...
متن کاملReproducibility of the water-drinking test in patients with exfoliation syndrome and exfoliative glaucoma.
PURPOSE To evaluate the reproducibility of intraocular pressure (IOP) peaks and fluctuations detected during the water-drinking test (WDT) in patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and exfoliative glaucoma (XFG). METHODS This prospective study included 34 XFS and 30 XFG patients. Each patient was evaluated twice, with the two WDTs performed on a 30-day interval. We recorded IOP peak (highes...
متن کاملCorrelation between macular changes and the peripapillary nerve fiber layer in primary open angle glaucoma
UNLABELLED Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness and the early diagnosis is crucial for treatment and follow-up in the progression of the disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes in mean macular thickness and volume and compare them with the mean thickness of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer in primary open angle glaucoma, using Time Domain (TD) optical coherence tomography ( OCT). ...
متن کاملExfoliation syndrome and exfoliation glaucoma-associated LOXL1 variations are not involved in pigment dispersion syndrome and pigmentary glaucoma
PURPOSE Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the LOXL1 gene have been implicated in exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and exfoliation glaucoma (XFG). We have shown that these SNPs are not associated with the primary glaucomas such as primary open-angle (POAG) glaucoma and primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). To further establish the specificity of LOXL1 SNPs for XFS and XFG, we determined wheth...
