RESUMO
Primary nephrotic syndrome refers to one of the common glomerular diseases in children.Glucocorticoid is the first choice in the treatment of nephrotic syndrome, and the using cycle is long.Long term application of glucocorticoids can cause side effects, including Cushing′s disease, hypertension, decreased immune function, growth retardation and eye adverse reactions.Among eye adverse reactions, glaucoma and cataract are more common.Glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma and glucocorticoid-induced cataract are often concealed, and children often cannot accurately express their discomforts.At the same time, some clinicians lack the understanding of the adverse reaction, which is easy to cause missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.Eventually, irreversible visual impairment occurred.Here, the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma and glucocorticoid-induced cataract are elaborated, thus aiming to improve clinicians′ understanding of glucocorticoid ophthalmopathy and the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment.
