Abstract
Noninvasive intracranial pressure assessment using otoacoustic emissions: an application in glaucoma
Highlights
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a chronic and progressive eye disease characterized by loss of retinal ganglion cells, thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer, and subsequent visual field loss
The within test variability was low and fairly stable across all body positions, with a standard deviation (SD) of differences ranging from 5.3 ̊ to 10.2 ̊
There is a nonlinear relationship between distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) phase and body position that is similar in healthy subjects and patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and normal tension glaucoma (NTG)
Summary
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a chronic and progressive eye disease characterized by loss of retinal ganglion cells, thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer, and subsequent visual field loss. An elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) was deemed to be the key factor in the pathophysiology of glaucoma. There is a variant of POAG in which the patients have a normal IOP Noninvasive ICP measurement in glaucoma analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript
