optic nerve perfusion
four part blood supply
- surface fiber layer: CRA
prelaminar region: capillaries of short posterior arteries
- laminar cribrosa: dense plexus supplied by short posterior ciliary arteries
retrolaminar regioin is uspplied by both the ciliary (and pial) and retinal circulations
pupil diameter and visual field
less than 3 mm causes general depression
III4e
I-V = object size
filter 1-4 (5 db increment filters)
filter a-e (1 db increment)
Goldmann stimulus size
Sizes of Stimuli (circle area) - ) [0...V scale]

Marking = Size in mm^2
0 = 1/16 square millimeter
I = 1/4
II = 1
III = 4
IV = 16
V = 64
Goldmann stimulus brightness
Luminance settings

i. Expressed in units called apostilbs (candela/pi*m^2)

ii. Changes are controlled in log10 unit steps (1...5 and a...e scales)

a. a, b, c, d and e settings represent 0.1 log unit changes

b. 1, 2, 3, 4 settings represent 0.5 log unit changes

2a - 2b - 2c - 2d - 2e - 3a - 3b - 3c - 3d - 3e - 4a - 4b
.1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1 .1
0.5 | 0.5 |

c. Typical brightness values:
4e = 1000 asb. 3e = 315 asb. 2e = 100 asb.
Note the log of the ratio of the luminances:
log10(1000/315) = 0.5 log units
log10(315/100) = 0.5 log units
Goldmann etc
iii.Background luminance is calibrated to 31.5 asb

iv. Relationship of Size to Luminance

a. Because of retinal summation and receptor sizes:
1. Increasing target area by 4 times (ie: I to II or II to III)
2. is equivalent to raising luminance by 0.5 log units

b. The left to right, top to bottom
diagonals represent stimuli of equal value
unoprostone isopropyl
Rescula
reduces IOP by increaseing trabecular outflow
latanoprost and travoprost
prodrugs that penetrate the cornea and are hydrolyzed by corneal esterase
bimatoprost
increases trabecular and uveoscleral outflow
atropine and inflammation
reduces flare by closing tight junctions
visual field defects
- temporal NFB defect of radiating nasal fibers
- Seidel scotoma
- nasal step of Roenne
- inferior altitudinal defect = fat Bjerrum
- Bjerrum arcuate scotoma
- isolated scotoma within Bjerrums area
LPI
75% chance of attack in fellow eye
pilocarpine lowers risk to 40% but may lead to chronic angle closure
MMC
streptomyces caespitosus
intercalates with DNA
toxic to fibroblasts in all stages of cell cycle (intraocular causes corneal decompensation, AC inflammation, necrosis of ciliary body and iris, scleral necrosis, retinal toxicity
5FU
affects S-phase
AGIS
ATT in AA, TAT in Caucasians
ALT failure: young, high IOP
trab failure: young, high IOP, DM
low IOP reduces VF deterioration
increased cataracts
CIGTS
collaborative initial glaucoma treatment study
gtts vs trab
measured VF loss, secondary IOP, VA, quality of life
VF loss same, sx initially worse but same at 4 years
IOP 17 gtts, 14 trab
more cataracts with sx
OHTS
goal: IOP reduction by 20%
measured ON change and VF change
5 year risk of developing POAG: 4.4% with gtts, 9.5% observation
predictive IOP, age, C/D ratio, CCT
EMGT
ALT and betaxolol vs no tx
VF loss, ON change; secondary: risk factors
55% progressed
tx reduced 25%, progression 45% vs 62%
each 1mmHg reduces risk of progression by 10%
GLT
ALT vs 0.5 T
ALT slightly better
