ABSTRACT
AIM: To investigate the differences in visual recovery, corneal astigmatism, and rotation stability of Toric intraocular lens(TIOL)implantation in cataract patients with different axial lengths.METHODS: Retrospective analysis. A total of 132 patients(132 eyes)with age-related cataract and corneal astigmatism who underwent phacoemulsification cataract extraction combined with TIOL implantation in our hospital's ophthalmology department from February 2021 to September 2022 were selected. They were divided into two groups based on the axial length: the group with axial length ≤24mm(79 cases, 79 eyes)and the group with axial length >24mm(53 cases, 53 eyes). Compare the best corrected distance visual acuity(BCDVA), corneal astigmatism, and TIOL rotation between the two groups of patients at 3mo after surgery.RESULT: After 3mo of surgery, both groups of patients had improved BCDVA and significantly decreased corneal astigmatism compared to those before surgery(P<0.001). However, there was no difference in BCDVA and corneal astigmatism between the two groups(P>0.05), and there was no significant difference in TIOL rotation between the two groups [(5.24±3.72)° vs.(6.36±4.21)°, P=0.110].CONCLUSION: There is no significant difference in visual recovery, corneal astigmatism, and TIOL rotational stability after TIOL implantation in cataract patients with different axial lengths.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To analyze the diagnostic value of optical coherence tomography(OCT)for early primary open angle glaucoma(POAG)by measuring the thickness of macular ganglion cell complex(mGCC), peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer(pRNFL), macular retinal nerve fiber layer(mRNFL)and retinal ganglion cell layer+inner plexiform layer(GCIP)in the macular region.METHODS:A case-control study design was used to collect 82 patients(82 eyes)with early POAG who admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020. There were 40 healthy volunteers(40 eyes)in the same period selected as the control group(20 eyes for left and right eyes, respectively). All subjects underwent tests of uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and equivalent spherical power. The upper, lower, nasal, temporal and average pRNFL thickness, the upper, lower and average mGCC, mRNFL and GCIP thickness in the macular region were analyzed. Spearman was used to analyze the correlation among the average thickness of eachindices, and ROC curve was used to analyze the value of mGCC, pRNFL, mRNF and GCIP thickness parameters in diagnosing early POAG.RESULTS:In the early POAG group, the thickness of upper, nasal, lower, temporal, average pRNFL and the thickness of upper, lower and average mGCC, mRNFL and GCIP were lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05). Average thickness of pRNFL was positively correlated with average thickness of mGCC, average mRNFL and average GCIP(rs=0.582, 0.632, 0.456, all P<0.05); average thickness of mGCC was positively correlated with average thickness of mRNFL and average GCIP(rs=0.583, 0.851, all P<0.05); Average thickness of mRNFL was positively correlated with average thickness of GCIP(rs=0.528, all P<0.01). ROC curve analysis shows that the AUC value of mGCC thickness and average value in early diagnosis of POAG were all above 0.8, and the diagnostic efficiency was the highest.CONCLUSION: OCT measurement of mGCC has certain value in diagnosing early POAG.
ABSTRACT
@#AIM: To study the optical coherence tomography(OCT)treatment of optic fiber thickness in patients with high myopia combined with glaucoma.<p>METHODS: Totally 160 eyes of 80 patients with high myopia and glaucoma who were treated in our hospital during 2017-01/12 were selected as the observation group, and 60 healthy volunteers(120 eyes)who underwent physical examination in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. OCT was used to analyze the thickness of optic nerve fibers in both groups.<p>RESULTS: Subjects compared with control group, the observation group of patients with nasal side, temporal, under the nose, nasal, under the temporal and the week on the average thickness of the optic nerve fiber layer is reduced, and the temporal side nerve fiber layer thickness increased(<i>P</i><0.05), and in the observation group diopter -10.00 to -11.00D in patients with nasal side, temporal, under the nose, nose, and the temporal and the week, on average, the optic nerve fiber layer thickness were significantly higher than that of diopter≥-12.00D patients(<i>P</i><0.05). Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the absolute value of diopter was negatively correlated with the mean thickness of optic nerve fiber layer in the nasal side, upper temporal quadrant, lower nasal side, upper nasal side, lower temporal and the whole circumference, and positively correlated with the thickness of optic nerve fiber layer in the lateral temporal optic nerve.<p>CONCLUSION: In patients with high myopia combined with glaucoma, the optic nerve fibers in all quadrants except the temporal side become thinner.
