Glaucoma and Choroidal Thickness
Since the landmark study by Spaide and colleagues on the development of enhanced depth imaging by optical coherence tomography, an increasing number of studies have addressed choroidal thickness in normal eyes, factors associated with choroidal thickness in normal eyes, and associations of choroidal thickness with various retinal and retinochoroidal disorders. These studies have revealed that m...
متن کاملPeripapillary and Macular Choroidal Thickness in Glaucoma
PURPOSE To compare choroidal thickness (CT) between individuals with and without glaucomatous damage and to explore the association of peripapillary and submacular CT with glaucoma severity using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS Ninety-one eyes of 20 normal subjects and 43 glaucoma patients from the UCLA SD-OCT Imaging Study were enrolled. Imaging was performed u...
متن کاملOptic nerve and choroidal circulation in glaucoma.
PURPOSE To investigate the circulation of the optic nerve head and choroid in patients with glaucoma. METHODS Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to determine optic nerve head relative blood velocity (ONVel), volume (ONVol), and flow (ONFlow) in 19 primary open-angle glaucoma patients and 15 age-matched healthy control subjects. In each subject, determinations were obtained from four sites on th...
متن کاملCase Report Choroidal Melanoma with Secondary Glaucoma
The case of a 40-year-old female patient with choroidal melanoma with secondary glaucoma presenting as a painful blind right eye is reported. Liver metastasis was detected by ultrasonography. The choroidal tumor measured 2 x 2.1 x 1.5 cm; histopathology showed that it was of the spindle cell (spindle A) variety. Such tumors are rare in non-white races and secondary glaucoma is an uncommon prese...
متن کاملChoroidal Circulation in Glaucoma: I. Bio-haemo-photometry in Chronic Open-angle Glaucoma.
As blood thickness depends on the concentration of blood cells in the vessels, the measurement of the thickness of the choroidal blood (which can now be done accurately by our bio-haemo-photometric method) facilitates the study of the choroidal circulation. The present communication reports the results of applying this method to the study of glaucomatous eyes, especially those with chronic open...
