Über den Zusammenhang zwischen Lebensalter und Prävalenz sowie Inzidenz des primären Offenwinkelglaukoms in der „Salzburg-Moorfields-Collaborative-Glaucoma”-Studie

Abstract: The age-dependent prevalences in this glaucoma screening program are in good agreement with the regression models of Tuck-Crick and Quigley-Vitale, especially in the age range of 40 - 80 years. The model for the 5-year incidences describes the tight relationship between age and 5-year risk for POAG. We estimate the number of new POAG cases in Austria in 2001-2006, 2010-2015, 2020-2025 and 2030-2035 at the age between 40 and 80 years to reach 49 100, 52 100, 62 000 and 69 600 patients, respectively.

“…14 In addition to pressure gradients, these fluid movements may generate shear stress at the nerve head. Whether these vitreal forces are bad, good, or irrelevant for the nerve is impossible to say, but we can say that they likely gradually decrease with age (see below) and become small once presbyopia becomes complete, again at about the age when POAG begins to appear 47,48. And, of course, any of the effects may not be on the nerve directly but rather on the astrocytes and other glial elements associated with the nerve head and the lamina 49.…”

Die Daten der Salzburg-Moorfields-Collaborative-Glaucoma-Study ergeben für die Menschen aus dem Raum Salzburg ähnliche Werte (15,6 ± 2,9 mmHg) [2]. Der Augendruck von Kleinkindern beträgt ca.…”
