| 설명 | 녹내장이란 안구방수로 차있는 공간인 앞방과 뒤방의 압력이 높아지는 것을 이르는 말이다. 이 녹내장은 안구방수가 너무 많이 생기거나 안구방수의 흡수의 길이 박혀서 생긴다. 즉 전방과 후방에 안구방수의 저류에 의해서 그곳의 압력이 높아지는 것을 말한다. 지속적인 안압의 상승은 눈에 나쁜 영향을 준다. 특히 시야의 변화를 일으키는데 이것은 주로 안압의 상승으로 인해서 시신경이 눌려서 생긴다. 특징적인 시야의 변화는 중심시야는 괜찮지만 중심에서 약간 벗어난 곳에 시각의 소실이 생기며 심한 경우에는 시력을 잃기도 한다. 그리고 급격히 안압이 상승할 경우에는 오심, 구토, 충혈 등의 증상과 시력의 소실 등이 나타날 수 있다. 녹내장은 홍채와 각막이 이루는 각도를 기준으로 광우각녹내장(open angle glaucoma)과 협우각녹내장(angle close glaucoma)으로 나눈다. 1.광우각녹내장-홍채와 각막이 이루는 각인 우각이 큰 녹내장을 말한다. 주로 선행하는 안병없이 안압상승으로 인해 장애를 초래하는 병이다. 주로 양안성으로 진행하며 말기까지 어떤 자각증상없이 서서히 진행하는 것이 보통이다. 말기까지 시력장애를 포함한 자각증상이 거의 없으므로 종종 뒤늦게 발견되는 경우가 있다. 2.폐쇄우각녹내장-후방의 압력의 갑작스런 상승으로 홍채가 전방 이동과 함께 우각이 폐쇄되어 발생한다. 홍채와 각막사이에는 안구방수가 정맥으로 나가는 길인 슐렘구멍이 있고 만약 홍채와 각막이 이루는 각이 적어질 경우에 이 슐렘구멍 폐쇄가 되어서 갑작스런 안압의 상승을 초래한다. 48시간 이내에 안압을 조절하지 않으면 때로는 영구적 실명을 일으키게 된다. 어떤 유발요인의 작용으로 갑작스런 발작이 일어나면 심한 안통 또는 두통을 수반한 시력상실을 일으킨다. 오심 또는 구토, 그리고 충혈 등의 증세가 동반이 된다. |

| glaucoma treatment | A laser beam of light is focused on the part of the anterior chamber where the fluid leaves the eye. This results in a series of small changes, which makes it easier for fluid to exit the eye. Over time, the effect of laser surgery may wear off. Patients who have this form of surgery may need to keep taking glaucoma drugs. Although glaucoma cannot be cured, it can usually be controlled. Medical treatment can be in the form of eyedrops or pills. Some drugs are designed to reduce pressure by slowing the flow of fluid into the eye, while others help to improve fluid drainage. The regular use of medications usually controls the increased fluid pressure. However, these drugs may stop working over time or they may cause side effects so that the eye care professional may select other drugs, change the dose, or use other means to deal with the glaucoma. Surgery can also help fluid escape from the eye and thereby reduce the pressure. However, surgery is now usually reserved for patients whose pressure cannot be controlled with eyedrops, pills, or laser surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |

| absolute glaucoma | The final stage of blindness in glaucoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| acute angle closure glaucoma | <ophthalmology> An increase in pressure within the anterior chamber of the eye. There are two forms of glaucoma: acute angle closure and open angle glaucoma. (27 Sep 1997) |
| acute glaucoma | <ophthalmology> A sudden blockage of the normal fluid circulation within the eyeball resulting in increased intraocular pressure. Increased pressure within the eyeball can cause damage to the optic nerve and blindness. Symptom include severe eye or facial pain, nausea, vomiting, decreased vision, blurred vision and seeing halos around objects. The eye appears red with a steamy cornea and a fixed (nonreactive) dilated pupil. Treatment is emergent with medications to lower the pressure within the eye. (27 Sep 1997) |
| alpha-chymotrypsin-induced glaucoma | Transient secondary glaucoma following the use of alpha-chymotrypsin in cataract extraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angle closure glaucoma | <ophthalmology> Primary glaucoma in which contact of the iris with the peripheral cornea excludes aqueous humor from the trabecular drainage meshwork causing a sudden blockage of the normal fluid circulation within the eyeball resulting in increased intraocular pressure. Increased pressure within the eyeball can cause damage to the optic nerve and blindness. Symptoms include severe eye or facial pain, nausea, vomiting, decreased vision, blurred vision and seeing halos around objects. The eye appears red with a steamy cornea and a fixed (nonreactive) dilated pupil. Treatment is emergent with medications to lower the pressure within the eye. Synonym: acute glaucoma, closed-angle glaucoma, narrow-angle glaucoma. (14 Aug 2000) |
| aphakic glaucoma | Glaucoma following cataract removal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsular glaucoma | Glaucoma occurring in association with widespread deposition of cellular organelles on the lens capsule, ocular blood vessels, iris, and ciliary body. See: pseudoexfoliation of lens capsule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| malignant glaucoma | Secondary glaucoma caused by forward displacement of the iris and lens, obliterating the anterior chamber; usually follows a filtering operation for primary glaucoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ghost cell glaucoma | Glaucoma occurring after vitrectomy, arising from erythrocyte membranes blocking outflow channels of aqueous humor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glaucoma | <ophthalmology> A group of eye diseases characterised by an increase in intraocular pressure which causes pathological changes in the optic disk and typical defects in the field of vision. It can be corrected by the use of laser light to punch a hole in the iris to relieve the intraocular pressure within the eye. The procedure is painless and requires no anaesthesia. (13 Nov 1997) |
| glaucoma, angle-closure | A form of glaucoma in which the intraocular pressure increases because the angle of the anterior chamber is blocked and the aqueous humor cannot drain from the anterior chamber. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glaucoma detection | You may know of the air puff test or other tests used to measure eye pressure in an eye examination. But, this test alone cannot detect glaucoma. Glaucoma is found most often during an eye examination through dilated pupils after drops are put into the eyes during the exam to enlarge the pupils. This allows the eye care professional to see more of the inside of the eye to check for signs of glaucoma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glaucoma fulminans | Acute angle-closure glaucoma rapidly followed by blindness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glaucoma, neovascular | A form of secondary glaucoma which develops as a consequence of another ocular disease and is attributed to the forming of new vessels in the angle of the anterior chamber. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glaucoma, open-angle | Glaucoma in which the angle of the anterior chamber is open and the trabecular meshwork does not encroach on the base of the iris. (12 Dec 1998) |
