Managing a patient with open-angle glaucoma: a case study
Mr AA is a 48-year-old shop attendant who presented at the eye unit of a teaching hospital with a history of gradual, painless vision loss. His presenting (unaided) visual acuity was counting fingers at 1 metre in the right eye and 6/60 in the left eye. Both corneas were clear, and the pupils had a slow reaction to light. There was a right relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD). The right ey...
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 کاملDefining the pathogenicity of optineurin in juvenile open-angle glaucoma.
PURPOSE Juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG) differs from primary open-angle glaucoma in that it is usually a more severe phenotype and has an earlier age of onset. Optineurin was recently associated with a variant of POAG that is characterized by intraocular pressure within normal limits: normal-tension glaucoma. The present study tested whether OPTN sequence changes play a role in early-onset ...
متن کاملClinical Characteristics of Juvenile-onset Open Angle Glaucoma.
PURPOSE To demonstrate the clinical characteristics of juvenile-onset open angle glaucoma (JOAG) and to evaluate the prognostic factors for visual field (VF) progression in eyes with JOAG. METHODS The medical records of 125 eyes of 72 patients with JOAG were analyzed retrospectively. At least four reliable VF tests were required to determine the VF progression, and the progression was defined...
متن کاملMutations in the myocilin gene in families with primary open-angle glaucoma and juvenile open-angle glaucoma.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the prevalence of myocilin (MYOC) mutations in Italian families with glaucoma and to determine the relationship of these mutations to primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG), and pigmentary dispersion glaucoma. METHODS Twenty-six patients with POAG were selected based on a positive family history of glaucoma. All patients and 210 relat...
