| Summary: |
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome
is an age-related disease. Genetic factor is also
involved in the manifestation of PEX. Fibrillar
extracellular material is produced and accumulated in
many ocular and other tissues. PEX is associated with
ocular and systemic ischaemia. Patients with PEX are
also predisposed to glaucoma and perhaps other diseases.
Glaucoma in PEX has a more serious clinical course and
worse prognosis then primary open-angle glaucoma. |
