Abstract:
Glaucoma is a progressive disease of the optic nerve that can result in visual impairment and in tum inhibit performance on everyday visual tasks. Three connected experimental studies described in this thesis primarily aim to investigate the performance of people with glaucoma on a computer-based task of reading whilst simultaneously recording eye movements. Fifty four patients with bilateral glaucoma and 40 age-similar people with normal vision took part in the experiments. The first study measured change in reading speed when letter contrast is reduced. Results showed that average reduction

Abstract:
Chronic Open Angle Glaucoma (COAG) refers to a chronic progressive condition that is characterised by damage to the optic nerve, resulting in peripheral visual loss that can progress to involve the fovea and central vision; subsequently causing blindness. COAG is reported to have a poor level of adherence to treatment due to its asymptomatic nature. In this study, a Glaucoma Expert Patient Programme (GEPP) demonstrated new ways of improving patients' experience and adherence to COAG treatment.

Abstract:
Static automated perimetry of the central 30˚ is the most often used visual field test in glaucoma patients. Short test durations are achieved by focusing on a central region, which constitutes ~20% of the visual field. However, ignoring the periphery may sacrifice information on how patients are affected functionally. Peripheral vision is important for guiding attention, balance and mobility. An efficient standard automated examination for the peripheral visual field has not been established yet. This thesis aims to lay groundwork for the development of such a test.

Background: Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness world-wide. There is a need for methods to identify individuals at risk of developing glaucoma, so that early treatment can prevent visual loss.

There is now strong evidence that a number of different genes are associated with glaucoma susceptibility. Mutations in the PITX2 homeobox transcription factor gene disrupt normal development of the anterior segment and cause overt structural abnormalities.

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness, estimated to affect more than 79 million people by the year 2020. It is a group of optic neuropathies that is found to be associated with autoimmunity. One of its types is exfoliative glaucoma which is more prevalent in certain areas of the world including Scandinavia. It is more aggressive and often resistant to conventional therapy. The best treatment options for glaucoma lies at the early detection of the disease. The aim of the study was to identify serum biomarkers in patients of exfoliative glaucoma in the Scandinavian population.

Glaucoma is an insidious progressive disease that leads to a permanent loss of vision if left untreated. The development of methods for early detection of the disease is essential as early diagnosis and treatment significantly reduces the risk of sight loss.

When the reason for a trabeculectomy failure is deemed to be an excess of fibrous tissue preventing the activity of the fistula, one has to opt for either a conservative management or a more aggressive interventional approach. In the decision making process many variables need to be born in mind: the mechanism of glaucoma, the technique employed for the original surgery, the state of the conjunctiva, the eventual comorbidities, the time to failure from the original surgery and the patient’s preference are some of them.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease and a leading cause of visual disability. Automated assessment of the visual field determines the different stages in the disease process: it would be desirable to link these measurements taken in the clinic with patient's actual function, or establish if patients compensate for their restricted field of view when performing everyday tasks. Hence, this study investigated eye movements in glaucomatous patients when viewing driving scenes in a hazard perception test (HPT). METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: The HPT is a component of the UK driving l

Abstract:
Purpose: To investigate venous total retinal blood flow (TRBF) and retinal blood flow (RBF) in the superior and the inferior retinal hemifields in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients with, and without, disc hemorrhage (DH). Methods: RBF measurements were obtained from 10 POAG with DH and 19 POAG without DH using Doppler SD-OCT (RTVue) as well as bi-directional laser Doppler flowmetry (CLBF). Results: RBF was not different between the superior and inferior hemifields for either of the two groups. Venous TRBF in the POAG with DH group was significantly lower than in the age-matched stabl

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to assess the level of knowledge about glaucoma among the patients who attend the CBN staff eye clinic in Abuja. An exploratory, descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted on adult CBN staff members and their eligible dependants. Data on demographics and knowledge of glaucoma were collected using a pre-tested structured questionnaire. One hundred and forty five respondents (100% return) participated in the study. Purposive sampling was done to recruit respondents. Of the total respondents’, 74.5% (n=108) claimed they had heard about glaucoma but only 14.5%

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立陽明大學<br>傳統醫學研究所<br>98<br>Glaucoma is a disease of leading blindness in the world. Pilocarpine is known to be a parasympathomimetic eyedrops that can be used to treat glaucoma patients. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of Pilocarpine eyedrops on cardiac autonomic nervous modulation between glaucoma patients and normal controls by using spectral heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Twenty normal tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and 19 normal controls were included in the study. There were no significant differences between NTG and controls with respect to age, gender,
