Ocular Blood Flow and Glaucoma by Lei Fang, Maneli Mozaffarieh

“…Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) is one main risk factor for glaucoma, yet there is increasing evidence that other risk factors are involved in the development of glaucoma, such as impaired ocular blood flow and oxidative stress.^1-3^ On the average, blood flow is reduced in glaucoma patients. …”

The Effects of Vitamin Supplementation Containing L-Methylfolate (Ocufolin® forte) on Retinal Venous Pressure and Homocysteine Plasma Levels in Patients with Glaucoma by Thibaut Devogelaere, Andreas Schötzau

“…# Purpose To report our observations of the effects of Ocufolin® forte on elevated retinal venous pressure (RVP) and elevated serum homocysteine (Hcy) in patients with glaucoma and/or ocular vascular diseases. # Methods A total of 26 patients with glaucoma and/or ocular vascular diseases in at least one eye, abnormal steady-state pattern electroretinography, RVP measured using an ophthalmodynamometer at least 15 mmHg higher than intra-ocular pressure (IOP), fasting serum Hcy level >12 µmol/l and stable and well-controlled IOP (with or without IOP-lowering treatment) received supplementation with Ocufolin® forte for 3 months…”
