Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the choroidal thickness and choroidal vascular index in normotensive individuals with dipping and nondipping patterns.
Methods: Patients who applied to the cardiology clinic for routine checkups and underwent 24-h blood pressure monitoring were included in our study. They were divided into two groups based on their dipper status.
Objectives: The objectives of the study were to analyze the long-term results of trabectome surgery in Turkish patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) and to characterize the risk factors for failure.
Methods: This single-center retrospective non-comparative study included 60 eyes of 51 patients diagnosed with POAG and PEXG, who underwent trabectome alone or phacotrabeculectomy (TP) surgery between 2012 and 2016. Surgical success was defined as a 20% decrease in intraocular pressure (IOP) or IOP≤21 mmHg and no further glaucoma surgery.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to assess how hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) affects the retina and choroid in healthy eyes, measuring central macular thickness and other retinal features.
- Thirty-five participants, aged 22 to 59, underwent HBOT and had their macular thickness measured before and after the first and twentieth sessions, showing a significant decrease in central macular thickness after treatment.
- While HBOT resulted in significant thinning of the macula, other retinal measurements showed no notable differences, suggesting HBOT might complement existing treatments for macular edema without adversely affecting other retinal structures.
Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the thickness of the central macula, the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), and the ganglion cell complex (GCC) in individuals with congenital red-green color vision deficiency (CVD) using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).
Methods: This study included 22 males with a red-green CVD (Group 1) and 22 males with normal color vision (Group 2). The Ishihara test was used to determine CVD.
