Peripheral vascular disease – a new vascular disease associated with normal tension glaucoma: a case report
ConclusionAfter ruling out other systemic diseases and vascular abnormalities related to normal-tension glaucoma, we found peripheral arterial disease as a probable vascular abnormality related to normal-tension glaucoma in our patient. To our knowledge, this is the first time such a case has been reported. Thus, further research is needed to determine the relevance of these results to the general population.
