Venous Ocular Blood Flow in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma
Journal Title: International Journal of Ophthalmology & Eye Science (IJOES) - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
Purpose: To study venous blood flow of the eye and the correlation between clinical data and ocular blood flow in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods: Color Doppler imaging of arterial and venous blood flow was performed in 78 patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG), 80 patients with high pressure glaucoma (HPG) and 60 control subjects. The statistical analysis included the calculation of correlation between clinical data and ocular blood flow parameters as well as Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The threshold P value for statistical significance was 0.05.
