Epidemiology, pathophysiology and diagnosis of uveitic glaucoma and ocular hypertension secondary to uveitis

Epidemiology of simple glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

The techniques of epidemiology originated in the study of the factors determining the spread ofinfectious disease. To-day, the term can be taken to mean, in a broader sense, the elucidation by the study of population samples of the natural history of disease; the determination of those factors which govern its manner of distribution; and the definition of the often elusive borderline between th...

Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension

Current Approach in the Diagnosis and Management of Uveitic Glaucoma

Uveitic glaucoma (UG) typically is associated with very high intraocular pressure (IOP) and more intense optic nerve damage than other glaucoma types. This secondary glaucoma requires an early diagnosis and adequate management of both uveitis and glaucoma. It is mandatory to identify the mechanisms of IOP elevation that in many eyes have multiple combined mechanisms. Management of these patient...
