BACKGROUND Glaucoma is an important cause of blindness. OBJECTIVE To report the distribution of various types of glaucoma among patients presenting to a tertiary eye hospital in Nepal. MATERIALS AND METHODS All new patients visiting the hospital between March 2007 and February 2008 underwent a comprehensive eye examination. Whenever glaucoma was suspected, patients were referred to fellowsh...
The aim of the present study was to establish the Tweed's norms for Nepalese people, compare the values between the Nepalese male and female samples as well as to compare with the Caucasians. One hundred lateral cephalogram was taken by the same x- ray technician and later traced by manually and all three angular parameters Frankfort Mandibular plane Angle (FMA), Frankfort Mandibular Incisal An...
Of a randomly selected sample of 40 patients with chronic simple glaucoma 11 were identified as having failed to comply adequately with medical advice. Noncompliers were more likely: to be men, to have had no other medical disorder but glaucoma, not to rank glaucoma as most troubling if they had another illness, to have experienced side effects from the treatment, and not to have appreciated th...
Since the pathomechanisms of primary open angle glaucoma are still not defined, different aspects related to this topic have to be discussed and further investigated. Possible candidates are the mineralocorticoids, which are known to lower intraocular pressure. A data search and personal investigations assume a limited role of mineralocorticoids for the development of glaucoma. Specific experim...
Primary angle closure glaucoma is usually a bilateral disease, though it may be asymmetrical. However, it is unusual to see advanced glaucoma in one eye and no disk damage in the other. We present a case of unilateral angle closure glaucoma complicated by an optic disk pit and iridociliary cysts. How to cite this article: Kaushik S, Ichhpujani P, Kaur S, Pandav SS. Optic Disk Pit and Iridocilia...
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are leading causes of irreversible blindness. Several loci have been mapped using genome-wide association studies. Until very recently, there was no recognized overlap in the genetic contribution to AMD and POAG. At genome-wide significance level, only ABCA1 harbors associations to both diseases. Here, we investigated...
