Ocular Blood Flow in Glaucoma – Myths and Reality (2009) Alon Harris

Description

This book provides a detailed analysis of the role of ocular blood flow (OBF) in glaucoma, examining measurement techniques, mechanisms of autoregulation, vascular risk factors (including blood pressure, age, and migraine), and the relationship between blood flow, ocular structure, and visual function. It assesses OBF’s significance alongside traditional risk factors like intraocular pressure (IOP), covering diagnostic methods like Color Doppler imaging and Laser speckle flowgraphy, and the effects of topical medications.
