Core Tip |
Loss of corneal endothelial cells have been reported in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), cell toxicity after long-term exposure to preservatives and glaucoma surgery has been reported to be possible mechanism for endothelial damage. In this study, we aimed to document the corneal endothelial changes and their correlations with mean IOP between POAG patients and normal controls. We found that the corneal endothelial cell density in POAG patients is decreased and the average endothelial cell area is increased compared with those in healthy controls. High IOP and anti-glaucoma medication in POAG may be the main causes of corneal endothelial cell damage. |
