CASE REPORT We describe a 42 year-old patient who developed acute myopia and closed-angle glaucoma one week after beginning treatment with topiramate. Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed a bilateral angle closure and choroidal effusion. The clinical findings resolved with withdrawal of the topiramate. DISCUSSION Topiramate may cause acute myopia and closure angle glaucoma in some patients due t...
BACKGROUND Microspherophakia is characterized by lenticular myopia, late development of lens dislocation, shallow anterior chamber and angle-closure glaucoma. If it is associated with angle closure glaucoma, the management can be challenging. OBJECTIVE To report the management of a case of bilateral secondary angle closure glaucoma with isolated microspherophakia and right subluxated lens in ...
Copyright © 2009 Massachusetts Medical Society. Glaucoma is a chronic, degenerative optic neuropathy that can be distinguished from most other forms of acquired optic neuropathy by the characteristic appearance of the optic nerve. In glaucoma, the neuroretinal rim of the optic nerve becomes progressively thinner, thereby enlarging the optic-nerve cup. This phenomenon is referred to as optic-ner...
Glaucoma drainage implants (GDIs) are used to treat paediatric glaucoma resistant to conventional medical and surgical treatment, achieving good intraocular pressure (IOP) control and long-term success. Late endophthalmitis is a rare complication that may develop following GDI surgery. A 17-year-old male presented with acute endophthalmitis 2 years after Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation with p...
lent cause of visual impairment and blindness in the United States, after cataracts and macular degeneration from aging. Glaucoma is a progressive disease that causes optic-nerve head damage. Open-angle glaucoma affects 0.5% of the total US population but affects a much higher percentage (about 3%) in people aged 70 and older (1,2). Glaucoma is characterized chiefly by an increase in intraocula...
INTRODUCTION Neovascular glaucoma (NVG), participates in the group of secondary glaucoma causing the-increase of intraocular pressure (IOP) as a result of iridocorneal angle enclosure with the development of neovase derived from the retinal ischemic and other inflamatory diseases. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Is to show the incidence, etiopathogenesis, clinical development and the management of NVG b...
Background: Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness and is usually associated with elevated intraocular pressure. In patients with primary open angle glau-coma the number of trabecular meshwork cells is decreased. Death of the trabecular meshwork cells may be a result of apoptosis. Objective: To investigate the aqueous humor levels of soluble Fas (sFas) and Fas-Ligand (sFasL) in ...
CASE REPORT A case is presented of an acute onset lens particle glaucoma originating from a crystalline lens spontaneously dislocated into the vitreous for more than 20 years in a patient diagnosed with Marfan syndrome. DISCUSSION Marfan syndrome is a connective tissue disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance caused by fibrillin gene mutation. Ectopia lentis is the predominant ocular abno...
Introduction: Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness throughout the world. Some studies have suggested a relationship between glaucoma and sensorineural hearing loss, while others have found no evidence of an association. We performed a study to determine whether there is a significant difference in hearing of patients with glaucoma and a match control population. Methods: In this...
