Few studies have provided epidemiological characteristics of childhood glaucoma in a large, multiethnic population. This information is important if we are to better screen for and characterize this specific type glaucoma. In study, evaluate the patients with glaucoma, including suspects, as identified through Dallas Glaucoma Registry (DGR).The DGR catalogs seen at University Texas Southwestern Medical Center, an academic tertiary referral center multiethnic, urban population United States....
This study compared the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of fixed-combination brinzolamide 1%/brimonidine 0.2% (BBFC) with that its component medications, and brimonidine, in patients open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.In this phase 3, multicenter, double-masked, parallel-group, 3-month a safety extension, eligible were randomized 1:1:1 to treatment BBFC, brinzolamide, brimonidine thrice daily after washout period, during which any IOP-lowering medications discontinued....
We report clinicopathologic features of a case von Hippel-Lindau disease in patient who had been clinically followed for bilateral retinal and cerebellar involvement. Two the patient's hemangiomas appeared to show evidence spontaneous regression.
Objective: To investigate the effect of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) on intraocular pressure (IOP) untreated fellow eyes in patients with open-angle glaucoma.Study design: Retrospective chart review.Patients and methods: Charts all who underwent SLT at University Texas Southwestern Medical Center Dallas between September 2003 May 2006 were reviewed. Each patient had IOP measurements by Goldmann applanation tonometry both preoperatively, 1 hour, 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months...
Purpose: To identify the incidence of and risk factors for intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation after Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). Methods: Retrospective review was conducted 68 consecutive DSAEK procedures alone, or in combination with phacoemulsification lens implantation exchange, performed by two surgeons at University Texas Southwestern Medical Center between 2005 2009. Eyes that developed IOP above 21 mm Hg requiring initiation escalation glaucoma...
The objective of this study was to examine the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy a fixed combination brinzolamide 1% + brimonidine 0.2% (BBFC) after six months treatment in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.This randomized, multicenter, double-masked, three-month, three-arm contribution-of-elements three-month extension. Patients were randomly assigned 1:1:1 BBFC, 1%, washout period. dosed their medications three times daily at 8 am, 3 pm, 10 pm...
purpose. To measure the concentration of betaxolol in tissues humans with glaucoma and normal monkeys after topical administration. methods. Enucleated eyes (n = 7) patients (age range, 27–79 years), without apparent anatomic disruption that would be likely to influence absorption intraocular distribution (exceptions: one pseudophakic, aphakic) or other disease, were analyzed for concentrations self-administration 0.25% twice daily 28 days longer. The last instillation was made within 6...
To compare the ocular surface tolerability of latanoprost 0.005% preserved with 0.02% benzalkonium chloride (BAK), bimatoprost 0.03% BAK, and travoprost 0.004% proprietary preservative system sofZia in patients previously treated latanoprost.This randomized, multicenter, investigator-masked, parallel-group study enrolled open-angle glaucoma or hypertension who had been on monotherapy for at least 4 weeks. At baseline, were randomized to receive once-daily (n=35), (n=38), (n=33) 3 months....
To quantify the aqueous humor (AH) concentrations of bimatoprost (amide), travoprost (isopropyl ester), and their hydrolysis products, free acid (BFA) (TFA), after multiple topical ocular doses LUMIGAN TRAVATAN, respectively, in patients awaiting cataract surgery.In 2 separate open-label, sparse-sampling trials, glaucoma with cataracts received (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, 0.03%) or TRAVATAN (travoprost 0.004%) bilaterally once daily for at least 21 days prior to surgery. Anterior...
To compare the mean central corneal thickness (CCT) in patients with congenital aniridia to that of a group age-matched control subjects. The findings specular and confocal microscopy patient are discussed.The values five consecutive pachymetry measurements subjects were used for analysis. Statistical analysis was performed Mann-Whitney rank sum test. Specular on one using Konan Microscope Noncon ROBO CA (Hyogo, Japan). Confocal through focusing Tandem Scanning (Reston, VA).Mean CCT measured...
Purpose. To describe the association of acanthamoeba keratitis and glaucoma, to establish an incidence glaucoma in patients with keratitis, discuss treatment options outcomes these patients, histopathologic findings pathogenesis secondary keratitis. Methods. After Institutional Review Board approval, charts all suspected having at Aston Ambulatory Center The University Texas Southwestern Medical were reviewed. Inclusion criteria as follows: diagnosis by positive confocal microscopy or...
This report describes a patient who developed corneal melt after the use of nepafenac, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug. An 82-year-old woman with chronic cystoid macular edema cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation in left eye, which was clinically controlled topical drug, initially treated diclofenac sodium 0.1% before being nepafenac 0.1%. After 5 months use, complained pain, foreign body sensation, decreased vision her eye. The eye showed peripheral ulcer no stromal cell...
To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction between dorzolamide 2% and brimonidine 0.2% in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT).This study was a prospective, double-masked, randomized, crossover comparison of (Trusopt) (Alphagan), three times daily during two six-week periods. The endpoint mean change from baseline trough IOP secondary endpoints were one hours after dosing. T-tests repeated-measures ANOVA used to statistically evaluate data.Of 43 patients...
Objective: To evaluate the effect of triamcinolone acetonide (ITA) on intraocular pressure (IOP) following intravitreal injection, and, in those patients who experience post-injection elevation IOP, to determine time course, multiple injections, and risk factors for rise.Methods: A retrospective chart review 85 consecutive received ITA (0.1 mL 40 mg/mL solution) at University Texas Southwestern Medical Center between January 2002 April 2004 was performed. Patient age, history open-angle...
