Journal ArticleDOI
High prevalence of glaucoma in patients with sleep apnea syndrome
Daniel S. Mojon,Christian W. Hess,David Goldblum,Johannes Fleischhauer,Fritz Koerner,Claudio L. Bassetti,Johannes Mathis +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with SAS constitute a high-risk population for glaucoma and should therefore be screened for glAUcoma, according to this cross-sectional study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normal-tension glaucoma is associated with sleep apnea syndrome.
Daniel S. Mojon,Christian W. Hess,David Goldblum,Matthias Boehnke,Fritz Koerner,Matthias Gugger,Claudio L. Bassetti,Johannes Mathis +7 more
TL;DR: Normal-tension glaucoma patients constitute a high-risk population for sleep apnea syndrome, and, if necessary, be treated to avoid late cardiovascular and neurological sequelae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Intra-Arterial Fibrinolysis of Acute Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
Johannes Weber,Luca Remonda,Heinrich Mattle,Ursula Koerner,R W Baumgartner,Matthias Sturzenegger,Christoph Ozdoba,Fritz Koerner,Gerhard Schroth +8 more
TL;DR: Intra-arterial fibrinolysis seems to have the potential to "lighten" the spontaneously poor outcome of CRAO, and a complete or marked improvement of visual acuity was achieved in one third of intra-arteria fibrinelysis patients but in none of the control patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optic neuropathy associated with sleep apnea syndrome
TL;DR: Visual fields of patients with SAS showed defects consistent with an optic neuropathy, and the CPAP therapy seems to stabilize or even reverse visual field defects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetic retinopathy study
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of photocoagulation on diabetic maculopathy with preservation of a useful visual acuity was highly significant only in diabetics under 60 years of age, the effect increasing with time as the control eyes fared worse.
