24
Q

Glaucoma group of ocular disorders characterised by

A

Optic nerve damage
Visual field disturbance
Raised intraocular pressure

25
Glaucoma meaning
Leading cause of blindness Normally the rate of aqueous production (inflow) and the rate if aqueous reabsorption (outflow) is balance Outflow occurs at the angle - the place where the iris meets the cornea If inflow is greater iop rises( intraocular pressure)
26
Types of glaucoma
Open-angle glaucoma | Angle-closure glaucoma
27
Open-angle glaucoma | Characteristics
Most common type of glaucoma Outflow of acqueous humor is decreased in trabecular meshwork Rise of iop Bilateral
28
Open-angle glaucoma | Characteristics
No initial manifestations Halos around the light Impaired dark adaptation Gradual reduction in visual firlds with preserved central vision
29
Angle -close sure glaucoma | Characteristics
Already narrowed angle closes, blocking aqueous flow Angle closure decreases the floe of aqueous humpr Rapid rise iop Caused by age , pupil dilation
30
Angle -close sure glaucoma | Manifestation
``` Abrupt onset eye pain or headache Excruciating pain in or around eyes Nausea and vomiting seeing colored halos Blurred vision Ocular redness cloudy cornea Fixed pupil ```
