Clinical evaluation of adrenoreception was carried out in 96 patients with various clinical patterns of primary open-angle glaucoma with normalized intraocular pressure by changes in vascular reactivity in the bulbar conjunctiva capillaries in response to epinephrine and norepinephrine. Neuro-vascular reactions of the bulbar conjunctiva in response to norepinephrine and epinephrine were different in patients with different patterns of primary open-angle glaucoma with normalized intraocular pressure. A significant correlation between the rate of progress of optic disk glaucomatous atrophy and the parameters of ocular adrenoreceptor structures of the eye was detected.
