Glaucoma is an intraocular pressure-related ophthalmic disease with multiple causes that results in an optic neuropathy and vision loss. Intraocular pressure elevation is among its strongest risk factors. While glaucoma is mostly primary in etiology, secondary glaucoma is not infrequent. Recognizing its cause is imperative, since treatment is often different depending on the pathophysiologic mechanism. Numerous clinically relevant ophthalmic infections can result in robust inflammatory responses that may result in pressure elevation or intraocular anatomic configurations that predispose to pressure elevation. Knowing the mechanisms by which these infections can lead to glaucoma is critical in treating, and we consolidate what is currently known in regards to how infectious diseases lead to glaucoma.

感染和青光眼

青光眼是一种与眼内压相关的眼科疾病,具有多种原因,可导致视神经病变和视力丧失。眼压升高是其最强的危险因素之一。虽然青光眼在病因学上主要是原发性的,但继发性青光眼并不少见。识别其原因势在必行,因为治疗通常因病理生理机制而异。许多临床相关的眼部感染可导致强烈的炎症反应,这可能导致压力升高或易于发生压力升高的眼内解剖结构。了解这些感染导致青光眼的机制对于治疗至关重要,我们巩固了目前关于传染病如何导致青光眼的已知信息。
