Abstract
Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma is one of the most severe forms of glaucoma. We studied clinical features and course of pseudoexfoliation glaucoma in patients residing in Udmurtia, comparing with primary open-angle glaucoma. There were 135 patients under observation, who were divided into two groups. All patients underwent various studies, analysis and comparison of obtained data. Our study allowed us to establish the following: in Udmurtia pseudoexfoliation glaucoma has a high prevalence, there are early and more pronounced degenerative changes in anterior chamber angle, the optic nerve disk, and the cornea with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma. Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma is characterized by rapid progression of glaucoma process and early transition to surgical treatment (bibliography: 6 refs).
