Evaluation of Choroidal Thickness in Patients with Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma
Purpose. To compare the macular and peripapillary choroidal thickness in eyes with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome and PEX glaucoma with the normal eyes of healthy controls. Materials and Methods. In this prospective study, 30 eyes of 30 patients with PEX syndrome, 28 eyes of 28 patients with PEX glaucoma, and 30 eyes of 30 age-matched healthy subjects were enrolled. Choroidal thicknesses in t...
متن کاملPrevalence of Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma in Upper Egypt
BACKGROUND Pseudoexfoliation (PXF) is a recognized risk factor for developing cataract, glaucoma and lens dislocation. PXF is also associated with increased risk of complications during cataract surgery due to poor mydriasis and zonular weakness. The aim of this study is to report the prevalence of pseudoexfoliation among Upper Egyptians attending the ophthalmology clinic of Assiut University H...
متن کاملCases of Pseudophakic Pseudoexfoliation in Glaucoma Patients
We present cases of primary open angle glaucoma patients without previous history of pseudoexfoliation who developed pseudoexfoliative materials on the anterior surface of the intraocular lens after cataract surgery. Among 5 unilateral pseudophakic pseudoexfoliation cases, 3 showed a more advanced state of glaucoma in the affected eye. The other 2 cases showed progression of glaucoma in the aff...
متن کاملPhacoviscocanalostomy in pseudoexfoliation glaucoma versus primary open-angle glaucoma.
OBJECTIVE To compare the outcome of phacoviscocanalostomy in pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEXG) versus that in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). DESIGN Prospective comparative study. PARTICIPANTS Sixty eyes of 60 patients who underwent phacoviscocanalostomy for cataract and medically uncontrolled PEXG (30 eyes) or POAG (30 eyes). METHODS Success rate was based on intraocular pressure (IO...
متن کاملGlaucoma and Choroidal Thickness
Since the landmark study by Spaide and colleagues on the development of enhanced depth imaging by optical coherence tomography, an increasing number of studies have addressed choroidal thickness in normal eyes, factors associated with choroidal thickness in normal eyes, and associations of choroidal thickness with various retinal and retinochoroidal disorders. These studies have revealed that m...
