Pulsatile ocular blood flow study: decreases in exudative age related macular degeneration.
BACKGROUND Pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) is a parameter for evaluating choroidal blood flow. POBF in the patients with non-exudative and exudative age related macular degeneration (AMD) was investigated. METHODS POBF, pulse amplitude (PA), systolic and diastolic blood pressures, intraocular pressure (IOP), refractive error, and axial length were compared among 10 patients with non-exudat...
متن کاملThe Study of Serum Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Concentrations in the Different Paraoxonase Phenotypes of Exudative Age-related Macular Degeneration Disease
Background and Aims: Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) is a degenerative retinal disorder that causes progressive loss of central vision in older adults. The study aimed to determine the effect of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) as oxidizing metabolite and paraoxonase (PON1) activity within its phenotypes as an antioxidant agent in the development of such multifactorial disease. Mater...

متن کامل[Vitreomacular traction in patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration].
We have read with interest the article by Dr. Filloy and Arias1 under the title “Response to ranibizumab in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) with vitreomacular traction” in which they conclude that in these patients the tendency is to diminished visual acuity, requiring a higher number of intravitreal injections. Recently, Mayr-Sponer et al.2 published a paper under the...
متن کاملFoveolar choroidal blood flow in age-related macular degeneration.
PURPOSE To compare measurements of the foveolar choroidal blood circulation in subjects with nonexudative, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with those of control subjects. METHODS Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to assess relative choroidal blood velocity (ChBVel), volume (ChBVol), and flow (ChBFlow) in the center of the fovea. Measurements were obtained in 20 eyes of 20 subjects with ...
