Outcome of cataract surgery in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
AIM To determine the visual benefit of cataract extraction in patients with retinitis pigmentosa and to identify risk factors for poor outcome. METHODS A retrospective analysis was undertaken of a continuous series of 142 eyes of 89 patients with retinitis pigmentosa undergoing cataract surgery between 1985 and 1997. RESULTS Mean age at surgery was 47.5 years (range 24-81 years). In 100 eye...

متن کاملRisk Factors for Posterior Subcapsular Cataract in Retinitis Pigmentosa.
Purpose Posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) is a frequent complication in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The risk factors for PSC formation in RP are largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for PSC. Methods We retrospectively studied a total of 322 eyes of 173 patients who were diagnosed with typical RP.

متن کاملPost-Cataract Surgery Visual Disturbance in a Retinitis Pigmentosa Patient with Asteroid Hyalosis
A patient with retinitis pigmentosa showed visual disturbances following successful cataract surgery. He had a dense asteroid hyalosis in the eye before cataract surgery. After the surgery he noticed that his vision became worse. The visual disturbance was explained as being caused by the progression of retinal degeneration. Although the electroretinogram was non-recordable, the degeneration of...
متن کاملRetinitis pigmentosa.
Hereditary degenerations of the human retina are genetically heterogeneous, with well over 100 genes implicated so far. This Seminar focuses on the subset of diseases called retinitis pigmentosa, in which patients typically lose night vision in adolescence, side vision in young adulthood, and central vision in later life because of progressive loss of rod and cone photoreceptor cells. Measures ...
