Update on the mechanism of action of topical prostaglandins for intraocular pressure reduction.
A decade has passed since the first topical prostaglandin analog was prescribed to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) for the treatment of glaucoma. Now four prostaglandin analogs are available for clinical use around the world and more are in development. The three most efficacious of these drugs are latanoprost, travoprost, and bimatoprost, and their effects on IOP and aqueous humor dynamics a...
متن کاملNumerical simulations of fluid pressure in the human eye
In this article we present computational results for the pressure in the human eye. Pressure computations for different flow rates of the aqueous humor, viscosity of the aqueous humor, and permeability of the trabecular meshwork are given. The fluid flow is assumed to be axisymmetric, and modeled as a coupled systems of Stokes and Darcy fluid flow equations, represented the fluid flow in the an...
متن کاملEffects of topical nipradilol, a beta-blocking agent with alpha-blocking and nitroglycerin-like activities, on aqueous humor dynamics and fundus circulation.
PURPOSE To study the effects of nipradilol, a nonselective beta-blocker with alpha 1-blocking activity and nitroglycerin-like activity, on aqueous humor dynamics and optic nerve head (ONH) circulation in albino rabbits. METHODS Experiments were carried out during the dark phase, in conscious rabbits conditioned to a schedule of alternating 12-hour periods of light and dark. The blood-aqueous ...
متن کاملEffect of Exponentially Variable Viscosity and Permeability on Blasius Flow of Carreau Nano Fluid over an Electromagnetic Plate through a Porous Medium
The present investigation draws scholars' attention to the effect of exponential variable viscosity modeled by Vogel and variable permeability on stagnation point flow of Carreau Nanofluid over an electromagnetic plate through a porous medium. Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion mechanism are taken into consideration. An efficient fourth-order RK method along with shooting technique ar...
متن کاملThe effect of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1/CC chemokine ligand 2 on aqueous humor outflow facility.
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1)/CC chemokine ligand 2 on aqueous humor outflow facility. METHODS Aqueous humor outflow facility was measured in enucleated porcine eyes in a constant pressure perfusion system with or without MCP-1 (1600 ng/mL). Expression of CCR2, an MCP-1 receptor, in Schlemm's canal endothelial (SCE) cells was examined by rever...
