Abstract
ZOZAYA ALDANA, Beatriz and MEDINA RODRIGUEZ, Isabel. Glaucoma during pregnancy. Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2010, vol.36, n.2, pp. 188-193. ISSN 0138-600X.
Authors made a bibliographic review on glaucoma in pregnancy to describe the management of these two variables. Physiopathologic elements are pointed out allowing a better diagnosis and treatment of these patients during a vital stage of their life, leading to a better control of disease during pregnancy, avoiding the progression of irreversible visual alterations related to glaucoma, taking into account the risk-benefit balance that therapeutics may offer for the mother and for her future baby.
