Relationship between optical perfusion pressure and systemic blood pressure on glaucoma: Case–control study

Relationship of systemic blood pressure with ocular perfusion pressure and intraocular pressure of glaucoma patients in telemedical home monitoring

BACKGROUND We evaluated the relation of systemic blood pressure with intraday variations in ocular perfusion pressure and intraocular pressure in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma in a telemedical home monitoring scenario. MATERIAL/METHODS In the project Teletonometry Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (TTMV) patients were equipped with a home monitoring system for 24-hour self-measurements of in...

Relationship Between Daytime Variability of Blood Pressure or Ocular Perfusion Pressure and Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression.

PURPOSE To study daytime or nighttime variability of mean arterial pressure and ocular perfusion pressure in untreated normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and determine whether increased short-term mean arterial pressure and/or ocular perfusion pressure variability are associated with greater risk of visual field (VF) progression. DESIGN Longitudinal, retrospective, observational study. ...

Blood pressure and glaucoma.

Intraocular pressure, systemic blood pressure, and age: a correlational study.

An attempt was made to study the associations between age, intraocular pressure, and systolic blood pressure. The eyes of 90 non-glaucomatous, ocular normotensive patients and of 142 ocular hypertensive patients were examined. A third group was formed from these two by stratification, to mirror the intraocular pressure distribution in the general population. In all three groups systolic blood p...

The Role of Systemic Blood Pressure in Glaucoma Progression.

The present paper aims to highlight the role of arterial hypotension in the progression of glaucoma. The data analyzed in this study was collected in a prospective manner for a period of one year, from september 2013 to august 2014. It includes newly diagnosed glaucoma patients treated with prostaglandin analogues and who have presented within normal range values of intraocular pressure during ...
