Glaucoma is a complex genetic optic disease characterized by a range of optic neuropathies. There are many subtypes of glaucoma but primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) associated with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most prevalent form. Based on the age of diagnosis, POAG is categorized as early-onset POAG or juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG) diagnosed between 10 and 35 years and ad...
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to report the effectiveness of trabeculectomies (TE) and modified deep sclerectomies (mdS) in a group of patients with juvenile uveitic secondary glaucoma. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of 16 TE and eight mdS. RESULTS Postoperatively, an IOP reduction to 11.6 ± 4.7 mmHg was achieved in the TE group and to 18.5 ± 11.4 mmHg in the mdS group (p =...
PURPOSE To evaluate the extent to which mutations in the optineurin (OPTN) glaucoma gene play a role in glaucoma in different populations. METHODS Case-controlled study of OPTN sequence variants in individuals with or without glaucoma in populations of different ancestral origins and evaluate previous OPTN reports. We analyzed 314 subjects with African, Asian, Caucasian and Hispanic ancestrie...
PURPOSE To search for the genetic cause of juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG) in a Caucasian family and to perform genotype/phenotype correlation studies in the kindred. METHODS Six members of a three-generation family originating from Uzbekistan and now living in the Middle East were recruited from one large clinic in Israel. Ophthalmologic investigations comprised of visual field assessmen...
purpose : glaucoma following penetrating keratoplasty (pk) continues to be a serious problem that may ultimately become sight threatening. knowledge of the risk factors for development of glaucoma following pk, such as preexisting glaucoma, pseudophakia, aphakia, and previous pk, can limit the occurrence and improve the outcome of the keratoplasty. the management of postkeratoplasty (post-pk) g...
Glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness world wide, affecting about 70 million people, 2 is characterised by progressive loss of optic nerve axons and visual field damage. As the condition is insidious, the diagnosis is often missed and the disease detected only later when patients have severe and irreversible visual impairment. Adult primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a major ...
Updates on the risk markers and outcomes of severe juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis.
Uveitis is the most common extra-articular manifestation of juvenile idiopathic arthritis, which is the most common systemic cause of uveitis in children. Known risk factors for uveitis include antinuclear antibody seropositivity, young age of arthritis onset, specific juvenile idiopathic arthritis subtype and short duration of disease. Risk markers for severe ocular disease include gender, age...
Childhood or pediatric glaucomas are a heterogeneous group, comprising the true primary developmental glaucomas, associated with developmental anomalies in the eye since birth and other secondary glaucomas. Early onset primary open angle glaucoma, the so called juvenile glaucoma, as well as angle closure glaucomas both primary and secondary are also seen in the pediatric age group. Pediatric gl...
Five infants with biopsy proved juvenile xanthogranuloma of the iris were reviewed. Early treatment with subconjunctival injection ofsteroids and topical steroid drops resulted in regression of the lesion in four patients. One patient, reviewed at the age of 8 months after glaucoma which had developed secondary to the iris xanthogranuloma, had been treated by surgery alone: the visual outcome w...
