چکیده

LEARNING OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Assess the signifi cance of ocular perfusion pressure as a risk factor for glaucoma. 2. Outline the potential role of low CSFP in the development of glaucomatous damage. 3. list the signifi cant risk factor for the development of glaucoma in patients with ocular hypertension. 4. devise appropriate management plans based on patients’ risk profi les and suitability for treatment.

Relationship Between Daytime Variability of Blood Pressure or Ocular Perfusion Pressure and Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression.

PURPOSE To study daytime or nighttime variability of mean arterial pressure and ocular perfusion pressure in untreated normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients and determine whether increased short-term mean arterial pressure and/or ocular perfusion pressure variability are associated with greater risk of visual field (VF) progression. DESIGN Longitudinal, retrospective, observational study. ...

Ocular Perfusion Pressure vs Estimated Trans-Lamina Cribrosa Pressure Difference in Glaucoma: The Central India Eye and Medical Study (An American Ophthalmological Society Thesis).

PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that taking translamina pressure difference into consideration changes associations between ocular perfusion pressure and glaucomatous optic neuropathy. METHODS The population-based Central India Eye and Medical Study included 4711 subjects. Ocular perfusion pressure was calculated as follows: ⅔ [diastolic blood pressure + ⅓ × (systolic blood pressure - diastoli...

Relationship of systemic blood pressure with ocular perfusion pressure and intraocular pressure of glaucoma patients in telemedical home monitoring

BACKGROUND We evaluated the relation of systemic blood pressure with intraday variations in ocular perfusion pressure and intraocular pressure in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma in a telemedical home monitoring scenario. MATERIAL/METHODS In the project Teletonometry Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (TTMV) patients were equipped with a home monitoring system for 24-hour self-measurements of in...

PURPOSE To assess systemic and ocular vascular reactivity in response to warm and cold provocation in untreated patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and normal control subjects. METHODS Twenty-four patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and 22 normal control subjects were subjected to a modified cold pressor test involving immersion of the right hand in 40 degrees C warm water followe...

Correlation between ocular perfusion pressure and ocular pulse amplitude in glaucoma, ocular hypertension, and normal eyes

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between ocular perfusion pressure and ocular pulse amplitude in glaucoma, ocular hypertension, and normal eyes. METHODS Ninety eyes from 90 patients were included. Thirty patients had been recently diagnosed with glaucoma and had no previous history of treatment for ocular hypotension, 30 had elevated intraocular pressure...
