Herpesvirus infection, glaucoma and ocular hypertension

Abstract
In recent years, the stock of therapeutic agents for glaucoma treatment has been supplemented with new effective drugs. Despite this, only timely surgical intervention creates the conditions for the preservation of visual functions in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma. Surgical and laser interventions are the most frequently performed operations in primary glaucoma. But the risk of complications that lead to treatment efficacy decrease remains an important factor. Excessive scarring of the newly created intraocular fluid outflow pathways is one of the most frequent postoperative complications, which in 15-45% of cases leads to intraocular pressure level increase at different timepoints after surgery. Postoperative periods in different patients may have significant differences, despite a comparable clinical picture prior to the surgery.
Developing the criteria for predicting postoperative course, frequency and nature of complications, as well as a set of measures to prevent and eliminate the causes that lead to glaucoma surgery failure is a question of the utmost importance. Possible causes include chronic herpesvirus infection, whose role in glaucoma surgery outcome has not been sufficiently studied.
