Over the past several decades, evidence has accumulated that vascular factors contribute to
the pathogenesis and development of a variety of ocular diseases, including glaucoma. New …

This is the sixth World Glaucoma Association Consensus. The relationship between ocular
blood flow and glaucoma has been discussed for more than a century, and still it uniformly …

There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that vascular dysfunction is related to
several prominent ophthalmic diseases, including glaucoma. The vast majority of studies …

ELEVATED INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE (IOP) CLEARLY IS a significant risk factor for
glaucoma, and clinical treatment of the disease is focused on lowering IOP. 1 It is important …

The benefit of reducing intraocular pressure to prevent progression of glaucoma is well
documented. 1 2 Despite decreased intraocular pressure some patients will, however …

This book is a synopsis of up-to-date knowledge on the quantification of ocular blood
perfusion and originates from expert lectures held at the 1995 Glaucoma Meeting in …

Glaucoma may be caused by an interplay of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), vascular,
genetic, anatomical, brain, and immune factors. The direct assessment of ocular …

New technologies have facilitated the study of the ocular circulation. These modalities and
analysis techniques facilitate very precise and comprehensive study of retinal, choroidal …

Impaired blood supply or reduced ocular blood flow may cause optic nerve damage in
glaucoma patients. It is therefore beneficial to study the ocular hemodynamics of glaucoma …
