ABSTRACT

Purpose: To quantify and compare the effects of instillation with 10% phenylephrine and digital lifting on the contralateral upper eyelid of patients with involutional bilateral blepharoptosis. Methods: The present prospective clinical study involved patients with involutional bilateral blepharoptosis who underwent two tests: 1) digital lifting of the more ptotic eyelid and observation of the effect on the contralateral eyelid and 2) instillation of two drops of 10% phenylephrine in the more ptotic eye and observation of the effect on the contralateral eyelid. Patients were filmed before and 5, 10, and 15 min after instillation, and the resulting images were analyzed to obtain eyelid measurements. The results were tested using a linear mixed-effects model. Results: A total of 27 patients, ranging from 52 to 82 years of age (mean age 68.51 ± 8.21 years), 24 (88.88%) of whom were women, were included in the present study. In eyes that received instillation, the marginal distance reflex-1 (MDR1) values increased from baseline (1.21 ± 0.60 mm) until 10 min after instillation, then remained statistically unchanged until 15 min after instillation (2.42 ± 0.90 mm). Significant differences were observed in the contralateral eye of the group that underwent digital lifting (1.51 ± 0.53 mm - 1.63 ± 0.56 mm) and in the contralateral eye of the group that underwent 10% phenylephrine instillation (1.38 ± 0.54 mm - 1.63 ± 0.56 mm); p=0.02 and p<0.01, respectively. Conclusion: In all eyes, 10% phenylephrine elevated the upper eyelid, with improved eyelid height at 10 min after instillation. Significant differences were observed in the height of the contralateral eyelid when compared before and after each intervention in each group; however, this difference was very small and nearly undetectable by conventional clinical evaluation in the digital lifting group. However, the 10% phenylephrine eye-drop test resulted in substantial changes in MDR1 values ...


Objetivo: Quantificar e comparar o efeito da instilação do colírio de fenilefrina 10% com o levantamento manual da pálpebra superior contralateral de pacientes com ptose palpebral bilateral involucional. Métodos: Estudo clínico e prospectivo de pacientes com ptose palpebral bilateral involucional submetidos a dois testes: 1) elevação manual da pálpebra mais ptótica e observação do efeito da intervenção na pálpebra contralateral; e 2) a instilação de duas gotas de colírio de fenilefrina 10% no olho mais ptótico e observação do efeito da intervenção na pálpebra contralateral. Os pacientes foram filmados antes e 5, 10 e 15 minutos após a instilação. Os resultados foram analisados estatisticamente com o modelo linear de efeitos mistos. Resultados: O estudo incluiu 27 pacientes com idade entre 52-82 anos (68,51 ± 8,21), 24 dos quais eram do sexo feminino (88,88%). Em olhos submetidos a instilação do colírio, os valores da DMR1 (distância marginal reflexo) aumentaram da linha de base (1,21 ± 0,60 mm) até os 10 min, em seguida, manteve-se estatisticamente estável até 15 min (2,42 ± 0,90 mm). Diferenças significativas foram observadas nos olhos contralaterais, independentemente do levantamento manual da pálpebra (1,51 ± 0,53 mm - 1,63 ± 0,56 milímetros) e da instilação do colírio de fenilefrina 10% (1,38 ± 0,54 mm - 1,63 ± 0,56 mm), p=0,02 e p<0,01 respectivamente. Conclusões: Em todos os olhos, a instilação do colírio de fenilefrina 10% mostrou um aumento gradual do valor de distância marginal reflexo até os 10 min. Nos olhos contralaterais houve diminuição do valor de distância marginal reflexo, independentemente do teste realizado, porém as mudanças que ocorrem na posição da pálpebra contralateral, durante o teste da elevação manual, são muito pequenas e difíceis de serem detectadas no exame clínico convencional. Enquanto isso, o teste de colírio de fenilefrina 10% produziu mudanças substanciais nos valores distância marginal reflexo nos ...
