Central retinal artery and vein collapse pressure in eyes with chronic open angle glaucoma.
AIMS To determine central retinal vessel collapse pressure in chronic open angle glaucoma. METHODS For 19 eyes with chronic open angle glaucoma and 27 eyes of a control group, central retinal vessel collapse pressure was measured by a Goldmann contact lens fitted with a pressure sensor in its holding grip. RESULTS Central retinal vein collapse pressure was significantly (p=0.001) higher in ...
متن کاملReproducibility of ophthalmodynamometric measurements of central retinal artery and vein collapse pressure.
BACKGROUND To assess the reproducibility of ophthalmodynamometric measurements using a new, Goldmann contact lens associated, device allowing biomicroscopic visualisation of the optic disc. METHODS The prospective clinical study included 87 eyes of 58 subjects presenting with a normal fundus (n=40), or ocular diseases (n=47). With topical anaesthesia, a Goldmann contact lens, fitted with a pr...
متن کاملFactors affecting ocular pulse amplitude in eyes with open angle glaucoma and glaucoma-suspect eyes.
PURPOSE To investigate the associations between ocular pulse amplitude (OPA) as measured by dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) and ocular and systemic factors in patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) and in glaucoma suspects. METHODS One hundred and seventy-three glaucoma-suspect patients were consecutively enrolled. All subjects underwent intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement by DCT and Gold...
متن کاملRetinal oximetry in primary open-angle glaucoma.
PURPOSE. To determine whether retinal vessel oxygen saturation is affected in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients. METHODS. Retinal oxygen saturation in patients with POAG was measured in retinal vessels with a spectrophotometric retinal oximeter in darkness, and visual fields were obtained. Oxygen tension (Po(2)) was calculated from oxygen saturation values. Statistical analysis was pe...
متن کاملIncident open-angle glaucoma and intraocular pressure.
PURPOSE To evaluate the role of baseline intraocular pressure (b-IOP) as a risk factor for incident open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in participants of African origin from the Barbados Eye Studies. DESIGN Population-based 9-year cohort study. PARTICIPANTS Three thousand two hundred twenty-two persons examined during the study period who were free of glaucoma at baseline and at risk of developing O...
