  • The changes in optic disc parameter and the thickness of circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and macular retina after acute primary angle closure

    Objective To determine the long-term changes in optic disc parameter and the thickness of circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (CP-RNFL) and macular retina after acute primary angle closure. Methods Prospective clinical case-control study. A total of 26 patients (30 eyes) with acute primary angle-closure glaucoma (APACG) were in the APACG group, whose intraocular pressure were control after a single episode acute primary angle closure; 30 age-and sex-matched healthy subjects (30 eyes) in the control group. All subjects underwent three dimensional optical coherence tomography (3D-OCT) examination with 3D optic disk scanning or circle optic disk scanning and 6 mm×6 mm macular scanning. The parameters included average thickness of entire CP-RNFL, thickness of nasal, superior, temporal and inferior quadrant of CP-RNFL, disc area, disc cup area, rim area, cup/disc (C/D) area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio. The foveal retinal thickness, center retinal thickness (≤1 mm from the fovea), 4 quadrants of macular inner-ring ( > 1 mm but≤3 mm from the fovea) retinal thickness, 4 quadrants of macular outer-ring ( > 3 mm but≤6 mm from the fovea) retinal thickness, average thickness of macular retinal thickness and macular volume were measured and analyzed. Results The disc area, disc cup area, C/D area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio and C/D vertical diameter ratio in APACG group were significantly bigger than the control group (t=3.22, 4.12, 3.90, 3.00, 3.23; P < 0.05), rim area was smaller than the control group (t=-2.63, P < 0.05). The average thickness (t=-6.68) and the thickness of superior (t=-5.90), temporal (t=-11.64) and inferior (t=-5.06) quadrants of CP-RNFL, center retinal thickness (t=-2.50), 4 quadrants of macular inner-ring retinal thickness (t=-4.91, -4.88, -2.83, -3.59), nasal (t=-2.13) and superior (t=-2.49) quadrants of macular outer-ring retinal thickness as well as average thickness of macular retinal thickness (t=-2.65) were significantly thinner than the control group (P < 0.05), and the macular volume (t=-2.69) was significantly smaller than the control group (P < 0.05). There was no statistically difference at nasal CP-RNFL (t=-0.11), foveal retinal thickness (t=-0.59), temporal (t=-0.67) and inferior (t=-1.02) quadrants of macular outer-ring retinal thickness between two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions In comparison with the healthy subjects, the disc area, disc cup area, C/D area ratio, C/D horizontal diameter ratio, C/D vertical diameter ratio in APACG eyes were bigger, while rim area was smaller; the CP-RNFL and macular retinal thickness were thinner except nasal CP-RNFL, fovea, temporal and inferior quadrants of macular outer-ring retinal.

  • Comparison and significance of scleral cribriform curvature in different types of glaucoma

    ObjectiveTo observe the differences in scleral lamina curvature (SLC) of patients with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG), primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and primary chronic angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG) were compared and analyzed and their significance was analyzed.MethodsA retrospective clinical study. From June 2017 to December 2020, 30 PXG (PXG group), POAG (POAG group) and CPACG patients (CPACG group) diagnosed at Eye Center of Cangnan County people's Hospital of Zhejiang Province (Cangnan Hospital Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University) were included in the study. The age difference between the three groups of patients was statistically significant (t=17.925, P=0.001); gender composition ratio (χ2=2.158, P=0.276), intraocular pressure (t=4.993, P=0.078), and axial length (t=1.956, P=0.532), central corneal thickness (t=1.407, P=0.724), average visual field defect (t=2.725, P=0.496), optic disc retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (t=2.185, P=0.492) in comparison, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The frequency-domain optical coherence tomography deep-enhanced imaging (OCT EDI) technology was used to measure the average and 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150° SLC of the affected eyes, and calculate the SLC index (SLCI) and SL curve depth (SLCD). Quantitative data comparison between groups used independent sample t test. Count data comparison used χ2 test. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used for correlation analysis.ResultsThe results of OCT EDI examination showed that the SLC of eyes with PXG and CPACG was significantly steep, while the SLC of eyes with POAG was relatively flat. Except for the angle of 150°, the other 6 angles of SLCI and SLCD in the PXG group and CPACG group were higher than those in the POAG group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference between PXG group and CPACG group for 7 angles of SLCI and SLCD (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the average SLCI [odds ratio (OR)=1.498, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.137-2.018, P=0.001], age (OR=1.074, 95%CI 1.019-1.143, P=0.016) was significantly correlated with PXG; mean SLCI (OR=1.625, 95%CI 1.192-1.997, P=0.001), intraocular pressure (OR=1.383, 95%CI 1.106-1.993, P=0.012) was significantly correlated with CPACG. POAG group (β=0.143, 95%CI 0.032-0.208, P=0.016), CPACG group (β=0.132, 95%CI 0.079-0.315, P=0.043) intraocular pressure was correlated with mean SLCI; all factors of PXG group were correlated with SLCI without correlation (P>0.05).ConclusionCompared with POAG, the SLC of eyes with PXG and CPACG is steeper and related to disease occurrence.
