Age and Positional Effect on the Anterior Chamber Angle: Assessment by Ultrasound Biomicroscopy
Purpose. To investigate age- and position-related changes of anterior chamber angle anatomy in normal, healthy eyes. Patients and Methods. Thirty subjects were separated into a younger and older cohort. The superior and inferior anterior chamber angles of the eyes were measured in supine and sitting positions by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) with bag/balloon technology. Statistical analysis wa...

m In addition to gonioscopy ultmsound biomicmscopy and Scheimpflug photography can be used to measure the imterior chamber angle width. The same subjects were measured with all three diagnostic tools and then the values were compared. v The anterior chamber angle width was measured in eight meridians in bath eyes of 20 volunteers without any history of ophthalmological problems. Gonioswpy was p...

متن کاملAnterior Chamber Angle Assessment Techniques
The anterior chamber angle is the actual anatomical angle created by the root of the iris and the peripheral corneal vault. Within it lie the structures involved in the outflow passage of the aqueous, namely the trabecular meshwork and the Schlemm’s canal (figure 1). The depth of the angle in a healthy eye is approximately 30°, with the superior part usually less deep than the inferior half. Ho...
متن کاملAnterior Chamber Morphology Changes Before and After Laser Peripheral Iridotomy in Eyes with Primary Angle Closure Using Ultrasound Biomicroscopy
Methods: Forty eyes of 40 patients with PAC underwent detailed ophthalmic evaluation including applanation tonometry, gonioscopy, optic disc evaluation with +78D lens and achromatic automated perimetry. UBM was performed to evaluate angle parameters before and after LPI to study the trabeculariris angle (TIA), the angleopening distance at 500 mm (AOD) and the central anterior chamber depth (ACD...
