Glaucoma: Open-Angle, Closed-Angle, Symptoms, Pharmacology, Pathophysiology Nursing NCLEX

Glaucoma nursing lecture covers symptoms, pharmacology, pathophysiology, open-angle, closed angle NCLEX review.
Quiz: www.registerednursern.com/gla...
Notes: www.registerednursern.com/gla...
Glaucoma is a set of eye disorders caused by increased intraocular pressure (IOP), which damages the optic nerve, potentially leading to vision loss (blindness).
Treatment of glaucoma includes surgery, such as selective laser trabeculoplasty, or a trabeculectomy.
Angle-closure glaucoma (also called narrow-angle or closed-angle glaucoma) can be treated with medications and a laser iridotomy or iridectomy.
Medications include alpha agonists, beta blockers, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, cholinergics, prostaglandin analogs, and rho kinase inhibitors.
This video also discusses eye drop administration, punctal occlusion, and post-op glaucoma surgery patient education.

Thank you mam

Hello Nurse Sarah I have a question. How do you approach a patient with open angle glaucoma?

[@sipiwenkweto2839]

I passed my NCLEX-RN 1st attempt thank you Sara your videos are excellent

[@youkendehunique6317]

What videos did you watch all of them?

[@haileym8073]

I am a registered nurse working at an ophthalmology surgery center and your eye videos are so helpful! It helps to know the pathophysiology/treatments of eye disease as someone like me sees it everyday in practice.

[@yosebross5837]

2 years ago when I was 17 I had glaucoma, I don't know why I have this disease, even though I don't have a lineage from people who have glaucoma and a list of other causes of glaucoma, after I experienced glaucoma my life has changed, I can't accept why I have this disease even though I'm still young, it's been more than 2 years for me to accept my disease, and after walking for 2 years, I feel lately my eyes don't look as wide as before, next month I will check my visual field, please pray for me, so that my eyes still have a normal field of view :)

May God heal you, in Jesus Name, Amen

[@jasmynpolitethebraillefana4179]

I already have to deal with this disease everyday. I've had glaucoma since I was nine and I've been on eye drops for 17 years. So far at the age of 27 I've been managing glaucoma successfully and seeing my glaucoma specialist every 4 months and getting tests to monitor the progression of glaucoma. This disease is a life sentence for me.

[@Luweezy]

Hey did you ever have to get surgery for it??

[@yosebross5837]

excuse me, I'm glad to hear that you can handle it well, I also suffer from glaucoma since 2 years ago when I was 17, but lately my vision has not been broad, if I may ask, is your visual field still normal? Thank you :)

[@jabbarshariff6901]

@@yosebross5837 hi bro You have close angel glaucoma are open angel glaucoma

[@Bostongreenm3.]

You are doing the most important thing to control this disease - keeping up with your appointments and using your eye drops!! This is the most crucial in my opinion.

[@Bostongreenm3.]

@@jabbarshariff6901 most likely open angle. Closed angle glaucoma is pretty sudden and requieres laser surgery treatment immediately in most cases. Open angle is the most common.

[@YourName-ej3sm]

Hello sarah, I just want to thank you for you have helped me to get through my student nurse journey. I graduated as a Cum Laude! I always watched your videos way back then. I always believe that you are a God-given angel to us, aspiring nurses! I thank God because of you. Now that I'm gonna be taking my Philippine Nurse Licensure Examination, I'm still here watching your videos and refreshing my memories. Hoping and praying that I'm gonna be one of the passers and Topnotchers this November 2022, by God's grace. Thank you again Sarah. More power and God bless you and your beautiful family.

[@timothygenaw2199]

I don't start nursing school until one more year. These videos are are preparing me ahead of time so learning all the information won't be so stressful.

[@amoremahal9354]

[@Judith21123]

This is perfect time because glaucoma is going to be one of the topics on my exam Friday. Thanks Sarah!

[@AznJsn82091]

As a new ophthalmic technician, I really appreciate these videos! Perhaps you could make more ophthalmology or eye videos?

[@olgaparsons717]

This is the best video not only on Glaucoma but the anatomy and function of the eye! Thank you!!

I absolutely love watching your videos with my daughter. You inspire me💕. Keep up the good work momma. Sending love from Louisiana.❤️

[@robd2650]

What an excellent video. I'm almost 68 & had a 5-2021 eye exam, which discovered quite high pressure at 29ish. We tried a couple of drops, & ended up with Lumigan, which seemed to bring the pressure down to about 21. Unfortunately, I had an appointment 11/2021, & the pressure went back up even with Lumigan to, 25/ 24, & the Doctor said it's moved to a glaucoma. Some say exercise can help, & there were a number of things that seemed to trash out the exercise I was getting. At any rate, I feel somewhat positive, that we've apparently caught this thing in early stages. She has now prescribed Dorzolamide HCI and Timolol, (one drop) so I'm taking that in the morning, & evening, & before bed I still take the Lumigan, a total of 3 times. Again I thought the presentation was just wonderful, & I'm going to try to find the drop application full video mentioned. I saw a handheld tonometer that allows you to check your own pressure, & was wondering how advantageous something like that would be. I've maxed my deductible this year, so insurance may kick in for a portion of the cost. Thanks for the great video!

[@abiolaoke3019]

I passed my NCLEX-RN at my very first attempt last December. Your videos were very helpful and Amazing. keep up the good work.

[@jasonphang3596]

[@jonathangraham6412]

What eye drops do you use that help? What has been your treatment for your glaucoma? Do you have permanent vision loss from glaucoma?

[@andreatobartorres985]

I’m preparing myself for usmle step 1 and this video helped me a lot with knowledge and understand pathophysiology thanks

[@gj3494]

Thank you so much for your very important information. I started using eye drops more than 12 years ago for glaucoma. I wish I knew this at that time.

I've read lots of books but still find it not clear. that's why I went to your channel and I've understood your explanation. Your videos are well explained. Got 94 % on my first attempt. 1 mistake. I misread the Trabeculoplasty as Trabeculectomy. Need a reading glass. Lesson is to read the question very well. Don't get excited. Thank you so much for helping us.😊
