The Immediate Treatment of Acute Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma with High Blood Pressure / 医学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects on intraocular pressure and blood pressure following anterior chamber paracentesis in acute primary angle closure glaucoma with high blood pressure.Methods 64 eyes of 64 glaucoma patients with high blood pressure were received anterior chamber paracentesis.the intraocular pressure and blood pressure were measured before and after paracentesis.Results The mean systolic blood pressure(SBP) and diastolic blood pressure(DBP) before paracentesis of 64 glaucoma were 195.10?15.24mmHg and 117.1?11.76mmHg respectively,after administration of paracentesis,the SBP and DBP were 138.82?20.86mmHg and 93.19?12.07mmHg respectively,the intraocular pressure also significantly decreased from 68.64?10.05mmHg to 10.66?4.41mmHg.There was statistical difference in SBP,DBP and intraocular pressure before and after administration of paracentesis.Conclusions Administration of paracentesis in acute primary angle closure glaucoma with high blood pressure can significantly reduce intraocular pressure and blood pressure simultaneously.
