Blurred vision
- Glaucoma
- Pathophysiology
- Due to increased production of
intraocular fluid or blockage of the
draining system
- Management
- Increase fluid drainage
- Parasympathomimitic
- Decrease fluid production
- B Blockers
- a 2 Agonists
- CA inhibitors
- Types
- Open-angle
- The lens is pushing
against the iris , happen
suddenly with eye pain &
quickly optic N. damage
- Closed-angle
- Gradual increase in ICP >21mmHg with no acute
symptoms and gradual optic nerve damage
