Optic nerve head behavior in Posner-Schlossman syndrome.

Purpose: To analyze the effect of glaucomatocyclitic crisis on the optic nerve head, as well as its consequent structural and hemodynamic changes. To evaluate the surgical indication for Posner-Schlossman syndrome.

Materials And Methods: Four Posner-Schlossman syndrome cases were evaluated for an analysis of the phenomena occurring in the optic disc by means of retinal confocal tomography and Scanning Laser Doppler Flowmetry, and their correlation with visual function as measured with automated computerized perimetry.

Antiglaucomatous drugs effects on optic nerve head flow: design, baseline and preliminary report.

Purpose: To determine the effect of the most frequent used antiglaucomatous drugs on the optic nerve head flow. To see the response of the autoregulation system in hypertensive, preperimetric and advanced perimetric glaucomas.

Materials: In this preliminary report, optic nerve head parameters and retinal perfusion values were measured in 25 healthy controls as well as in 72 glaucomatous optic nerve heads.
