Gold shunt for refractory advanced low-tension glaucoma with spared central acuity
The aim of this study is to report a case of gold shunt surgery for uncontrolled, low-tension glaucoma with good central vision, after having a previously failed trabeculectomy and tube shunt surgeries. The patient was receiving maximum medical glaucoma therapy of four different types with intraocular pressure of 17 mm Hg prior to gold shunt surgery. Five years later, intraocular pressure is we...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Effect of Hypercapnia on Vascular Function in Normal Tension Glaucoma
INTRODUCTION Altered ocular perfusion and vascular dysregulation have been reported in glaucoma. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the vascular response to a hypercapnic stimulus. METHODS Twenty normal tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and eighteen age- and gender-matched controls had pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) measurements, systemic cardiovascular assessment, and laser Doppler digi...
متن کاملOcular Blood Flow and its Determination and Relevance in Glaucoma
Received for publication October2005 .................................. Although intraocular pressure (IOP) is closely linked to the pathogenesis of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and reduction of IOP slows down the glaucoma damage, 12% of subjunctives with controlled IOP continue to have progressive visual field loss and about 30% of glaucoma patients never experience high IOP. Clinical ex...
متن کاملPlasma vascular endothelial growth factor, soluble VEGF receptor FLT-1, and von Willebrand factor in glaucoma.
AIM To investigate plasma indices of vascular permeability (vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF-also an index of angiogenesis, as well as the soluble receptor for VEGF, sFlt-1) and endothelial damage/dysfunction (von Willebrand factor, vWf) in glaucoma. METHODS Citrated plasma was assayed for VEGF, sFlt-1, and vWf (all ELISA) in a cross sectional study of 50 patients (20 male; mean age 6...
متن کاملThe Role of Retinal Oxidative and Nitrative Injury in Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration
The mechanical compression theory explaining the origin of glaucoma considers elevated intraocular pressure as the most important risk factor for the disease. This theory gives support to the essential signs of glaucomatous optic neuropathy, such as increased cupping and neuroretinal rim thinning but does not explain the existence of normal tension glaucoma. Alternatively, the vascular ischemia...
