Popis | The aim of the study was to compare the results of structural and functional examinations in a group of high tension glaucomas of different aetiologies and normal tension glaucoma. The results ewrw processed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, Changes in the visual field were statistically significant in the clinical groups compared to the control group. Using the examination technique of PERG and PVEP, the autors found that in high tension glaucomas of varied etiology, the damage occurs in the whole optic pathway. Patients with PG had the highest degree of damage of the optic pathway. In the normal tension glaucoma , however, the ganglion cell layer was relatively normal but significant pathological changes were found in the optic pathway. |
