Retrobulbar hemodynamic parameters in men and women with open angle glaucoma.
BACKGROUND/AIM Several factors may have influence on systemic circulation. Additionally, peripheral circulation also demonstrates sex differences, in young women presenting significantly lower finger blood flow in comparison to men of the same age, a finding that disappears in women after menopause. The aim of this study was to compare the retrobulbar hemodynamic parameters measured by means of...
متن کاملChanges in the retrobulbar hemodynamic parameters after decreasing the elevated intraocular pressure in primary open-angle glaucoma patients.
INTRODUCTION Ocular blood flow (OBF) disturbances could be involved both in the pathogenesis and in progression of glaucomatous damage. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to compare the retrobulbar hemodynamic parameters in the ophthalmic artery (OA), central retinal artery (CRA) and short posterior cilliary arteries (SPCA) after decreasing the elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in primary o...
متن کاملHaematological Parameters in open angle Glaucoma Patients
There is potential for blood related factors to affect aqueous production or optic nerve functions. There have been relationships between inflammatory cell count and glaucoma. Eosinophils have inverse relationship with steroids which is used to induce ocular hypertension. Here we compare hematological parameters for a group of 68 chronic openangle glaucoma (OAG) patients and a non-glaucomatous ...

INTRODUCTION An altered perfusion of the optic nerve head has been proposed as a pathogenic factor of glaucoma. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes of the hemodynamic parameters in the retrobulbar arterial circulation after decrease of the elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in women and men with primary open angle glaucoma. METHODS The study included 60 patients (33...
متن کاملAqueous Humor Levels of Soluble Fas and Fas-ligand in Patients with Primary Open Angle and Pseudoex-foliation Glaucoma
Background: Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness and is usually associated with elevated intraocular pressure. In patients with primary open angle glau-coma the number of trabecular meshwork cells is decreased. Death of the trabecular meshwork cells may be a result of apoptosis. Objective: To investigate the aqueous humor levels of soluble Fas (sFas) and Fas-Ligand (sFasL) in ...
