Automated analysis of angle closure from anterior chamber angle images.
PURPOSE To evaluate a novel software capable of automatically grading angle closure on EyeCam angle images in comparison with manual grading of images, with gonioscopy as the reference standard. METHODS In this hospital-based, prospective study, subjects underwent gonioscopy by a single observer, and EyeCam imaging by a different operator. The anterior chamber angle in a quadrant was classifi...
متن کاملThe association of Fuchs's corneal endothelial dystrophy with axial hypermetropia, shallow anterior chamber, and angle closure glaucoma.
A series of 24 patients with Fuchs's dystrophy are presented in whom detailed clinical measurement showed an association with axial hypermetropia and shallow anterior chamber. In 14 of these patients one cornea had developed oedema, of which 11 had required penetrating keratoplasty. Comparison of these eyes with the fellow eyes without corneal oedema revealed that the anomalies in measurement w...
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 کاملNarrowing of the anterior chamber angle during Valsalva maneuver: a possible mechanism for angle closure.
PURPOSE To evaluate changes at the anterior chamber angle during Valsalva maneuver in eyes suspected to have a primary adult glaucoma. METHODS Seventy-six consecutive patients underwent recording of applanation tonometry, measurement of the anterior chamber angle recess, angle opening distance, angle recess area, scleral spur-iris root distance, iris thickness, iridociliary angle, ciliary bod...
متن کاملEffects of Laser Peripheral Iridotomy on Corneal Endothelial Cell Density and Cell Morphology in Primary Angle Closure Suspect Subjects
PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of prophylactic laser peripheral iridotomy on corneal endothelial cell density and cell morphology in subjects with primary angle closure suspect (PACS) within a one-year follow-up period. METHODS In this quasi-experimental prospective study, from June 2012 to November 2013, thirty-five PACS eyes underwent laser peripheral iridotomy at clinics affiliated to Shi...
