Optic disc changes in glaucoma.
Sir William Mackenzie (I835) was the first to describe raised intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma. Following the introduction of the ophthalmoscope, the presence of glaucomatous cupping was soon recognized (Jacobson, I853; Jaeger, I854; von Graefe, 1854; Weber, i 855; and others) and was confirmed histopathologically by Miuller (1856). Mackenzie (i854) described flattened and atrophic nerves...
متن کاملOptic disc findings in normal tension glaucoma.
One hundred thirty stereo photographs of optic discs in patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG) were reviewed in order to identify characteristics of the three following types of NTG: focal ischemic, senile sclerotic, and generalized cup enlargement. Twenty patients in each group were selected. Focal ischemic patients were more frequently women, had a higher incidence of migraine, a relativ...
متن کاملClinical Optic Disc Evaluation in Glaucoma
Examination of the optic nerve head (ONH) is essential for the diagnosis of glaucoma and assessment of its progression. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy with a handheld lens is the best method of ONH examination since it provides good stereopsis and magnification. ONH stereo photographs are complementary and may identify findings missed on slit-lamp examination. As a result of its subjective nature, a s...
متن کاملOptic disc morphology in pigmentary glaucoma.
AIM To evaluate the morphology of the optic nerve head in eyes with pigmentary glaucoma. METHODS Colour stereo optic disc photographs of 62 patients with pigmentary glaucoma and 566 patients with primary open angle glaucoma were morphometrically evaluated. By prestudy selection, mean visual field defect and neuroretinal rim area were not significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.8...
متن کاملThe optic disc i : Classification in glaucoma
The pale, cupped disc found in the final stages of glaucomatous disease has been known from the time of Von Graefe (I854). Since then many observers have described changes that occur at the optic disc in chronic, simple glaucoma. There has been particular interest in changes which may occur in the early stages of the disease. Studies of the normal population have shown that while there is a wid...
