| combined glaucoma | Glaucoma with angle-closure and open-angle mechanisms in the same eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| compensated glaucoma | <ophthalmology> A disorder which is characterised by increased pressure within the eyeball. This occurs secondary to the chronic blockage of normal fluid circulation within the eye. Increased pressure within the eye can cause damage to the optic nerve and eventual blindness. Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness. Symptoms include decreased vision, halos around lights (worse at night) and mild chronic headaches. Treatment is generally with beta-blocker eyedrops. Synonym: chronic glaucoma, compensated glaucoma, simple glaucoma, glaucoma simplex. (22 Sep 2002) |
| congenital glaucoma | An affection of infancy, marked by an increase of intraocular pressure with enlargement of the eyeball. Synonym: congenital glaucoma, hydrophthalmia, hydrophthalmos, hydrophthalmus. Origin: G. Bous, ox, + ophthalmos, eye (05 Mar 2000) |
| corticosteroid-induced glaucoma | <ophthalmology> Glaucoma caused by a hereditary predisposition in which local instillation of eyedrops containing corticosteroid causes increased intraocular pressure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| haemorrhagic glaucoma | Secondary glaucoma after formation of new blood vessels in the iris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudoexfoliative capsular glaucoma | Secondary glaucoma incident to a degenerative cyclitis producing deposits on anterior lens capsule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secondary glaucoma | Glaucoma occurring as a sequel of preexisting ocular disease or injury. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pupillary block glaucoma | Glaucoma secondary to failure of the aqueous humor to pass through the pupil to the anterior chamber. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hypersecretion glaucoma | Glaucoma caused by excessive formation of the aqueous humor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| simple glaucoma | <ophthalmology> A disorder which is characterised by increased pressure within the eyeball. This occurs secondary to the chronic blockage of normal fluid circulation within the eye. Increased pressure within the eye can cause damage to the optic nerve and eventual blindness. Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness. Symptoms include decreased vision, halos around lights (worse at night) and mild chronic headaches. Treatment is generally with beta-blocker eyedrops. Synonym: chronic glaucoma, compensated glaucoma, simple glaucoma, glaucoma simplex. (22 Sep 2002) |
| narrow-angle glaucoma | angle-closure glaucoma |
| neovascular glaucoma | Glaucoma occurring in rubeosis iridis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Donders' glaucoma | An obsolete eponym for open-angle glaucoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| open-angle glaucoma | <ophthalmology> A disorder which is characterised by increased pressure within the eyeball. This occurs secondary to the chronic blockage of normal fluid circulation within the eye. Increased pressure within the eye can cause damage to the optic nerve and eventual blindness. Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness. Symptoms include decreased vision, halos around lights (worse at night) and mild chronic headaches. Treatment is generally with beta-blocker eyedrops. Synonym: chronic glaucoma, compensated glaucoma, simple glaucoma, glaucoma simplex. (22 Sep 2002) |
| eyes, glaucoma | Disease (there is more than one type) characterised by increased pressure within the eye. Glaucoma can lead to blindness. Glaucoma is five times more likely to occur in Blacks than in Whites. Early detection of glaucoma is essential to the preservation of vision. Glaucoma can be treated with medications, laser or traditional surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
