Pupil-block glaucoma in homocystinuria.
HOMOCYSTINURIA is an inborn error of metabolism due to deficiency of the enzyme cystathionine synthetase. This results in an increased excretion of homocystine in the urine and raised homocystine and methionine levels in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid. Clinically there is a picture of ectopia lentis, due to zonular degeneration, skeletal changes, fine fair hair, shuffling gait, mental retard...
متن کاملThe post-illumination pupil response is reduced in glaucoma patients.
PURPOSE The post-illumination pupil response (PIPR), which is driven by the intrinsic response of melanopsin-containing, intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, has previously been characterized in healthy eyes. The present study examined whether the PIPR is affected in patients with glaucoma compared with healthy subjects. METHODS Sixteen glaucoma patients (mean age, 63.7 years)...
