42 Describe this photo

43 Glaucoma Glaucoma refers to a group of diseases optic neuropathy with associated visual field loss elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the primary risk factors Three factors determine the IOP: The Rate of aqueous humor production by the ciliary body Resistance to aqueous outflow across the trabecular meshwork - Schlemm s canal system The level of episcleral venous pressure Commonly accepted range for normal IOP is mmhg In most cases of > IOP is > resistance to aqueous humor outflow

44 Glaucoma Between 80,000 and 116,000 Americans are legally blind secondary to glaucoma with each year an additional 5,500 pts become legally blind Approximately 3 million Americans 40 yrs or older have POAG and other forms of glaucoma or related conditions add to these totals 50% don t know they have the disease Glaucoma is the most frequent cause of blindness in Black Americans Classifications Open Angle glaucoma Angle- closure glaucoma Combined-mechanism glaucoma Childhood glaucoma
