Aim - to determine the value of caffeine loading test in the diagnosis of hydrodynamic disturbances in eyes with cataract and pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
Material And Methods: A total of 98 patients (98 eyes) with cataract and PEX were examined.
Among known glaucoma triggers, pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) is most of all studied. Development of open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in some patients with PXF and certain somatic diseases requires further investigation. This study was aimed to evaluation of glaucoma risk in patients with PXF in relation to concurrent somatic pathology.
