Virtual reality headsets for visual field testing in glaucoma offer a variety of benefits for the patient, the practice and ...

A new study published in the journal of Medicine showed that the risk ofdeveloping obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is increased ...

A visual field test (perimetry). This measures your central and peripheral vision. Perimetry detects scotomas and allows recording of their location and size. The treatment of blind spots depends ...

It appears that ‘pre-perimetric’ glaucoma (using current standard automated perimetry) can be identified by OCT RNFL thickness, with the detectable VF loss first appearing with RNFL approximately 17% ...

Objectives In this study, we sought to evaluate the extent of further visual field that could be assessed when using stimulus size V in standard automated perimetry compared with size III in advanced ...

Method: A sample of 51 patients with previously confirmed normal perimetry were recruited; either low risk glaucoma suspects or normal controls. AAP, SWAP, and FDP perimetry was performed in random ...

Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy resulting in characteristic visual field defects. Investigating the relationship between development of functional damage in the visual field and structural ...

An eye doctor's main goal in the treatment of glaucoma is to lower eye pressure to a safe level in order to halt damage caused by the high-pressure levels. Treatment typically includes prescribing ...

Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the expression profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) related to apoptosis in the aqueous humor (AH) and lens capsule (LC) of patients with glaucoma.
