Methods: The records of patients with coexisting glaucoma and cataract who underwent combined phacoemulsification, posterior chamber in-展开更多
Purpose: Open angle glaucoma (OAG) is known to demonstrate an hereditary pattern. The pattern, severity and progression of OAG in first degree relatives were evaluated and compared. Methods: Six pairs of first degree ...Purpose: Open angle glaucoma (OAG) is known to demonstrate an hereditary pattern. The pattern, severity and progression of OAG in first degree relatives were evaluated and compared. Methods: Six pairs of first degree relatives (five parent/child, one pair identical twins) with OAG were reviewed. The pattern of glaucoma within each pair of family members was compared,展开更多
Purpose: Raloxifene is known to reduce flow resistance in selected vasculature. This study examined the effect of raloxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) on retrobulbar blood flow. Methods: Right ey...Purpose: Raloxifene is known to reduce flow resistance in selected vasculature. This study examined the effect of raloxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) on retrobulbar blood flow. Methods: Right eyes of fifteen postmenopausal women receiving raloxifene were compared with right eyes of fifteen postmenopausal age-matched women not receiving raloxifene. Using color Doppler imaging the peak systolic velocity (PSV),展开更多
Purpose: To determine whether treatment tables and detailed explanation on the treatment regimen, have an influence on compliance with treatment and thus on the intraocular pressure(IOP) in glaucoma patients. Methods:...Purpose: To determine whether treatment tables and detailed explanation on the treatment regimen, have an influence on compliance with treatment and thus on the intraocular pressure(IOP) in glaucoma patients. Methods: Seventy four glaucoma pa-tients(143 eyes,70 right and 73 left) taking 3 or 4 types of medications, were included. Treatment tables were designed by us and they included the current glaucoma medications at the top展开更多
