Abstract:

Intraocular pressure (IOP) modifications in patients with acute central/hemicentral retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) consist in IOP reductions and increases. The IOP reduction is due to a transitional hyposecretory phase of the aqueous humor, that increases gradually until 3mo after the venous occlusion onset, and then finally disappears after month 4th. The IOP increases lead to the ocular hypertension and glaucoma. The possible pathogenetic correlations between ocular hypertension/glaucoma and acute central/hemicentral RVOs have been classified into three groups: 1) the venous occlusion preced

Abstract:

<strong>Background:</strong> Glaucoma’s characterized by secondary angle closure differ from glaucomas characterised by primary angle closure (PACG). In contrast to primary angle closure glaucoma, secondary angle closure glaucoma is characterised by identifiable contributory factors for angle closure and obstruction of aqueous flow, which are typically unaffected by iridotomy. Each type of secondary angle closure glaucoma is managed differently; therefore, diagnosing the underlying cause is essential for its effective treatment.

Abstract:

Background: Glaucoma is a major cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, with a variety of subtypes such as primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG), and secondary glaucomas, each with distinct pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment challenges. The prevalence and patterns of glaucoma vary geographically, with PACG being more common in Asian populations. Early detection and management are crucial in preventing blindness, particularly in resource-limited settings where delayed diagnosis is common.

Abstract:

Introduction: Glaucoma is the second-most-frequent cause of blindness in the world. Most primary glaucomas are managed by early diagnosis and treatment however secondary glaucomas differ from primary by the fact that, if the primary pathology is treated properly and the possibility of secondary glaucoma is kept in mind, glaucomatous damage can be easily prevented. This study is aimed at determining the prevalence and pattern of secondary glaucoma, the knowledge of which will help in reducing the glaucoma blindness.

Glaucoma affects the quality of life (QoL) of millions of people. Patients with glaucoma have a reduced QoL in early stage disease, which worsens as the disease progresses. Reduced visual function is the main determinant of poor QoL in glaucoma, however ocular surface discomfort, psychological factors, and social constraints contribute to the burden of disease. The assessment of QoL in glaucoma is important in clinical practice to assessing a patient’s wellbeing, visual function and level of satisfaction with their care. It can be used to make important therapeutic decisions and allow clinicia

Open angle glaucoma is more prevalent form of glaucoma than closed angle glaucoma blindness can be avoided if glaucoma treated early. Objectives: There are many factors associated with open angle glaucoma this study is performed to assess The most important factors that associated with open angle glaucoma among Iraqi patients who had glaucoma attending AL-Yarmook teaching hospital Methods: Across sectional study was conducted at AL-Yarmook hospital in Baghdad from October

Background The extent of our knowledge of the epidemiology of pediatric glaucoma in China is limited. To better characterize the epidemiology of pediatric glaucoma in eastern China, we report the clinical profile, etiologies, and treatment modalities in patients <18 years of age in Shanghai Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital. Methods The medical records of patients presenting glaucoma between January 2003 and December 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. The demographic characteristics, the proportion of different glaucoma subtypes and surgical precedures were collected and analyzed. Results
