UNLABELLED PRIMARY OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA PREFERRED PRACTICE PATTERN® GUIDELINES Evidence-based update of the Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Preferred Practice Pattern® (PPP) guidelines, describing the diagnosis and management of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma with an algorithm for patient management and detailed recommendations for evaluation and treatment options.

conclusion the study evaluated the biomechanical properties of the on and peripapillary structures in vivo with swe in glaucoma. we observed stiffer on and peripapillary tissue in glaucomatous eyes, indicating that swe claims new perspectives in the evaluation of on and peripapillary structures in glaucoma disease. background primary open-angle glaucoma is a multifactorial serious disease chara...

PURPOSE To investigate biometrically the differences between plateau iris configuration (PIC) eyes and primary open angle glaucoma with narrow angle eyes. METHODS A comparative study involving a case series with 20 eyes of 11 plateau iris configuration patients and 45 eyes of 27 primary open angle glaucoma with narrow angle eyes patients was done. The following measurements were taken: cornea...

Purpose: We compared visual field progression among patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), normal tension (NTG), and angle-closure (PACG).Methods: A total of 115 POAG, 123 NTG, 92 PACG eyes were retrospectively analyzed. Global VF was evaluated by calculating the changes mean deviations. To examine local deterioration, scotoma enlargement deepening analyzed in superior, inferior arcu...

A REGULAR Mendelian dominant pattern of inheritance is characteristic of so-called juvenile glaucoma and some hundred genealogies have been recorded (Fran9ois, 1961), two-thirds showing one or two affected generations and the other third three to six generations. However, in a condition of such high prevalence as primary glaucoma, two successive affected generations are not sufficient to prove ...
