Changes of visual quality and influencing factors after primary angle-closure glaucoma complicated with cataract / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

In recent years, the combined surgery of phacoemulsification, intraocular lens implantation, and goniosychialysis has gradually emerged as a primary and effective approach in treating primary angle-closure glaucoma with cataracts. However, with the continuous progress of medical technology, postoperative intraocular pressure control is no longer the sole pursuit. Patients increasingly aspire to achieve higher postoperative visual quality. In order to ensure that patients attain a better refractive status and higher visual quality postoperatively, it is essential to minimize the negative impact caused by primary angle-closure glaucoma. This involves personalized selection of different intraocular lenses or calculation formulas,etc. Evaluation metrics for visual quality encompass visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, higher-order aberrations, subjective perception, etc. Therefore, this paper provides a comprehensive review of postoperative refractive shift, higher-order aberrations, contrast sensitivity and their influencing factors, and the selection of intraocular lenses for patients undergoing combined surgery for primary angle-closure glaucoma with cataracts.

Observation on the efficacy of combined surgery on acute angle-closure glaucoma with cataract / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM: To study and analyze the clinical effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens(IOL)implantation combined with goniosychialysis in treatment of acute angle-closure glaucoma with cataract. <p>METHODS: From June 2010 to October 2018, 40 patients(40 eyes)with acute angle-closure glaucoma and cataract which anterior chamber angle adhesion is less than 180°admitted to our hospital were enrolled in this study. They were divided into observation group and control group according to different surgical methods. The patients in the control group were treated by phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. The observation group was treated with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with goniosychialysis. The difference between the two groups was compared. <p>RESULTS: At 3mo, 6mo after operation, the visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber angle grading of the observation group were better than those of the control group(<i>P</i><0.05). <p>CONCLUSION: Regarding the treatment of acute angle closure glaucoma, who has cataract and less than 180° peripheral anterior synechia, phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with goniosychialysis showed significant clinical effect.

· AIM:To investigate the clinical efficacy of phacoemulsification (Phaco) and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation combined with goniosychialysis in the treatment of acute primary angle-closure glaucoma (APACG) with cataract.· METHODS:In this prospective randomized clinical trial,60 eyes of 60 patients with APACG and coexisting cataract were randomized to the control group (30 patients,30 eyes) or the study group (30 patients,30 eyes) and completed the trial.All the two groups were treated with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation,and the control group (30 patients,30 eyes) was combined with trabeculectomy,while the study group (30 patients,30 eyes) was treated with the goniosychialysis.All patients were followed up for 2mo.The preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),intraocular pressure (IOP),anterior chamber depth (ACD),anterior chamber angle(ACA) and complications were compared.· RESULTS:There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in BCVA,IOP,ACD,ACA before surgery(P＞ 0.05).The postoperative BCVA,lOP,ACD and re-opening anterior chamber angle (ACA) in two groups were all improved,and the differences had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.001).BCVA,ACD,re-opening ACA of research group were significantly better than those of the control group (P＜0.05).The decreased IOP of the study group were more than the control group and the complications of the control group were more than the study group,but there was no statistical difference in the postoperative IOP and complications between two groups (P＞0.05).· CONCLUSION:The phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with goniosychialysis can improve the vision of patients,decrease IOP,increase ACD,and re-opening anterior chamber angle (ACA) in patients with APACG combined with cataract.It has a positive clinical effect.
