The glass rod test in glaucomatous eyes.

چکیده
1. Recent literature suggests that thyrotropic exophthalmos commonly follows thyroidectomy. 2. To investigate the true incidence of this as a complication, a questionnaire was submitted in regard to 1,001 patients admitted to the Royal Free Hospital for thyroidectomy from 1940-1944. 3. Satisfactory information was obtained in 584 cases. 4. Three cases, only, of thyrotropic exophthalmos of a mild degree were found. 5. No gross cases of the condition occurred. 6. The condition is rare as sequel to thyroidectomy.

Effects of concomitant administration of latanoprost and pilocarpine on the intraocular pressure of experimentally glaucomatous rabbits
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a combination of latanoprost and pilocarpine onthe intraocular pressure in experimentally glaucomatous rabbits. Ocular hypertension was induced in 11conscious rabbits by the oral administration of tap water (70 mL/kg) via an orogastric tube. The study wasconducted in three therapeutic groups to test the effects of latanoprost (group L), p...
متن کاملInvestigating the effects of glaucomatous (POAG) damage on the mVEP parameters
Introduction: Glaucoma is considered as a major cause of irreversible vision loss, worldwide. Glaucoma includes a diverse ophthalmopathies characterized by attenuating the neural and connective tissue segments and eventually progression of specific patterns of visual dysfunction. Currently, perimetry is known as the most accurate diagnostic method in glaucoma and its follow up...
متن کاملCorneal hysteresis measured with the Ocular Response Analyzer in normal and glaucomatous eyes.
PURPOSE To identify differences in corneal hysteresis (CH) and central corneal thickness (CCT) between healthy and glaucomatous patients. METHODS Retrospective observational study. One hundred and thirty-three eyes of 75 healthy and 58 glaucomatous patients were included. CH was measured in each patient using Ocular Response Analyzer. CCT was determined by ultrasonic pachymetry. For each pati...
متن کاملRetinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Measurement Comparison Using Spectral Domain and Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography.
PURPOSE To investigate the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness concordance when measured by spectral domain (SD) and swept source (SS) optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to compare glaucoma-discriminating capability. METHODS RNFL thicknesses were measured with the scan circle, centered on the optic nerve head, in 55 healthy, 41 glaucoma suspected, and 87 glaucomatous eyes. The RNF...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of dorzolamide on ocular blood flow in normal and glaucomatous eyes. METHODS Twenty-six eyes with documented open-angle glaucoma of 26 patients and 13 normal control eyes of 8 age-matched subjects were included in this study. All eyes underwent color Doppler imaging for measuring peak-systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity, and resistance index in the ophthal...
