ABSTRACT
?AlM: To analyze the quantitative changes of anterior segment by Pentacam anterior segment system and to evaluate the safety and effectiveness after implantable collamer lens ( lCL) implantation for high myopia. ?METHODS:Twenty- one patients with 39 eyes were implanted lCL in our hospital from September 2011 to February 2013. The follow-up was 6 ~ 12mo. Central anterior chamber depth ( ACD ) , anterior chamber angle ( ACA) , anterior chamber volume ( ACV) were measured by Pentacam preoperatively, 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively. The distance between crystal lens and lOL ( lCL- vault ) were measured at 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively. Preoperative uncollected visual activity ( pre - UCVA ) , best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , postoperative uncorrected visual acuity ( post-UCVA) and intraocular pressure ( lOP) were recorded. The paired t-test was used to access the data preoperatively and postoperatively in the statistical way by using SPSS 18. 0 statistical software. ? RESULTS: Preoperatively, at 1wk, 1 and 6mo postoperatively, ACD were 3. 27±0. 22, 3. 02±0. 33, 2. 98±0. 31, and 2. 98±0. 32mm. ACA were (40. 39±5. 40)o, (26. 70±4. 47)o, (26. 96±4. 48)o, and (26. 95±4. 45)o. ACV were 207. 74±25. 43, 122. 87±17. 58, 128. 05±17. 84, and 128. 64±17. 50mm3 , respectively. There were statistically significant differences between preoperative and postoperative data in ACD, ACA, ACV (P ?CONCLUSlON:ACD, ACA, ACV by Pentacam anterior segment system are found to be decreased after the operation, but there is still a relative safe distance between lOL and the crystal len. lCL implantation is a safe, efficacy method in correcting high myopia, but the long-term effects will require further observation.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To investigate the quality of life in adults with strabismus and evaluate the improvement in quality of life after treatment. METHODS: In this prospective study, forty-five adults with a diagnosis of strabismus conform to the inclusion and exclusion standard were selected in our hospital from October 2013 to May 2014, as experimental group and 45 normal adults were enrolled as control group. A Chinese Adult Strabismus-20 questionnaire was used to evaluate the differences of quality of life between patients with strabismus and normal adults, and to evaluate the differences of quality of life in patients with strabismus preoperative and 6mo postoperative. RESULTS:The scores of quality of life in adult patients with strabismus preoperative and 6mo postoperative were statistically significant lower than those of normal adults (P CONCLUSION: Strabismus can decrease the quality of life in psychosocial and visual functional for adults and the surgical treatment can improve quality of life in patients with strabismus.
