Neovascular Glaucoma - EyeWiki
Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a severe form of secondary glaucoma characterized by proliferation of fibrovascular tissue in the anterior chamber angle.
Diagnosis and Management of Neovascular Glaucoma
2018年4月1日 · Neovascular glaucoma (NVG), a secondary glaucoma that has significant potential to cause visual loss, is characterized by neovascularization of the iris (NVI) and of the angle (NVA) as well as elevated intraocular pressure (IOP).
Neovascular Glaucoma: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatments
2024年10月21日 · What is Neovascular Glaucoma? Neovascular glaucoma is an aggressive form of secondary glaucoma. It’s caused by the growth of abnormal blood vessels between the iris and the cornea. The eye’s drainage angle between the iris and cornea controls the flow of aqueous humor (clear fluid of the eye).
Diagnosis and Treatment of Neovascular Glaucoma
2006年7月1日 · Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a potentially devastating sequela of serious underlying ocular and/or systemic diseases. The ocular diseases responsible for neovascularization of the iris (NVI) or neovascularization of the angle (NVA) that ultimately lead to NVG are almost always ischemic in nature.
The Association between Vascular Abnormalities and Glaucoma …
2023年8月25日 · In this study, several biomarkers of glaucoma progression from a vascular perspective, including endothelin-1 (ET-1), nitric oxide, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), were identified and subsequently assessed for their potential as pharmacological intervention targets.
The Vascular Theory in Glaucoma
Over the last few years, there has been mounting evidence in the literature on the possible role in glaucoma played by the ocular vascular system, associated vascular cellular mediators, and factors other than IOP.

Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a secondary ocular pathological condition resulting from a myriad of ocular and systemic conditions with retinal ischemia as a mediator in over 95% of cases. NVG is caused by the growth of a fibrovascular membrane secondary to a local angiogenic stimulus over the trabecular meshwork obstructing aqueous outflow.
