Glucocorticoid receptor polymorphisms and intraocular pressure response to intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide.

29 Nov 2008 BACKGROUND: Elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) following injection of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) is an important clinical problem. The etiology of the steroid response is poorly understood, although a genetic determinant has ... Read more...


Effects of oxidative stress in trabecular meshwork cells are reduced by prostaglandin analogues.

30 Oct 2008 PURPOSE: The trabecular meshwork (TM) of glaucomatous eyes is characterized by cell loss, increased accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), and cellular senescence. One factor increasingly discussed in the pathogenesis of primary open-angle ... Read more...


The elasticity and rigidity of the outer coats of the eye.

29 Sep 2008 AIMS: The aim of this study was to measure the elastic moduli of the cornea and sclera and the rigidity of the eyeball. METHODS: Elastic moduli of the cornea and sclera were measured on 22 fresh intact porcine eyes using the relationship between ... Read more...
