Episcleral venous pressure level in patients with thyroid associated orbitopathy

Abstract: Thyroid associated orbitopathy (TAO) occurs in patients with various diseases of the thyroid gland. The levels of episcleral venous pressure (EVP), intraocular pressure and intraorbital pressure are inter- related. There are no precise data on the change of EVP in patients with TAO. Purpose. To evaluate EVP in patients with compensated and sub-compensated TAO forms. Methods. Data of 41 eyes of 22 patients were enrolled into the study. The main index to be evaluated was the EVP. Results. EVP l… Show more

“…6 Second, the outflow of aqueous humor in some patients may be impeded by increased episcleral venous pressure resulting from external pressure on the globe. 6–8 In other patients, there may be mucopolysaccharide deposition in the trabecular meshwork with increased outflow resistance. 9–11 Third, TED is associated with chronic surface and anterior chamber inflammation and formation of peripheral anterior synechiae, which may cause outflow resistance and secondary angle closure.…”

“…Известно, что активное течение ЭОП осложняется компрессией и ишемией зрительного нерва (ЗН), расширением ВГВ и повышением уровня эписклерального и внутриглазного давления (ВГД) [9][10][11]. Поэтому у пациентов с высокоактивным течением процесса часто диагностируют кератопатию, компрессионно-ишемическую оптиконейропатию и симптоматическую офтальмогипертензию [1,12].…”

“…Повышение внутриорбитального давления приводит к нарушению венозного оттока в верхней и нижней глазничных венах, повышению давления в эписклеральных венах, снижению легкости оттока внутриглазной жидкости [10,11,12].…”
