The objective of this study was to compare orbital and ocular vasculature velocity, measured by Doppler imaging, in normal Beagles and Beagles with inherited primary open-angle glaucoma. Eight normal Beagles and 13 Beagles with different stages of primary open-angle glaucoma were evaluated twice with a 2-4-week period between measurements. Doppler imaging was performed with the dogs anesthetized, and the Doppler transducer applied directly on the corneal surface. The majority of the orbital vasculature (external ethmoidal artery; internal ophthalmic artery and vein; and external ophthalmic artery and vein) and ocular blood vessels (anterior ciliary artery and veins; long posterior ciliary arteries; short posterior ciliary arteries; primary retinal arteries; and the vortex veins) were identified and Doppler blood velocity parameters were determined. The glaucomatous dogs demonstrated significant differences in the Doppler velocity parameters of several orbital vessels (external ethmoidal, external ophthalmic, and internal ophthalmic arteries), and several ocular vessels (anterior ciliary, short posterior ciliary, and long posterior ciliary arteries). These differences included decreased blood velocities, and increased pulsatility and resistive indexes. The Doppler blood flow velocities of the primary retinal arteries were unchanged between the normal and glaucomatous dogs. In the glaucomatous dogs, the Doppler imaging suggests increased vascular resistance downstream in both the orbital and ocular vasculature. These blood velocity parameter changes may be primary or secondary, and may offer therapeutic opportunities to increase perfusion, prolong the retina and optic nerve head function, and maintain vision in the canine glaucomas.
