Zusammenfassung

Hintergrund

Der aktuelle Stand und zukünftige Perspektiven der Prävention und Therapie des trockenen Auges unter Glaukomtherapie werden diskutiert.

Methoden

Zugrunde liegen eine Literaturrecherche aus Pubmed (Schlüsselwörter: „Glaucoma“ und „dry eye“) und eigene klinische und experimentelle Daten.

Ergebnisse

Das trockene Auge ist eine der Hauptkomplikationen einer längerfristigen lokalen Glaukomtherapie. Es gibt eine direkte Korrelation der Zahl konservierter antiglaukomatöser Tropfen mit dem Oberflächenschaden.

Schlussfolgerung

Vor und während längerfristiger topischer Glaukomtherapie ist unbedingt auf das Vorliegen eines trockenen Auges zu achten und dieses adäquat zu behandeln, um langfristige Schäden und eine reduzierte Compliance des Patienten zur verhindern.

Abstract

Purpose

Current concepts and future perspectives for therapy and prevention of dry eye in glaucoma patients are described.

Methods

Own clinical and experimental findings and PubMed based literature search (keywords: glaucoma and dry eye).

Results

Ocular surface disease is the main long-term complication of glaucoma therapy. Prevention of ocular surface inflammation by preservative-free antiglaucoma eye drops and concurrent dry eye therapy are important

Conclusions

It is mandatory to treat dry eye prior to and during glaucoma therapy. Preservative-free glaucoma medication can help to ameliorate the problem.
