Klappentext zu „Pathogenesis and Risk Factors of Glaucoma “
During a closed international symposium held in Friedrichsruhe, Germany, the latest scientific results on the pathogenesis and risk factors of glaucoma were discussed, and this volume summarises the progress made in the detection and treatment of glaucomas. The 25 contributions cover such topics as compliance, medical therapy, wound healing, genetic risk factors, disk damage in relation to visual field loss, disk haemorrhages, intraocular pressure, low blood pressure, retinal ischemia, and the treatment of causal factors in glaucoma.
