Increased iris thickness and association with primary angle closure glaucoma.
AIMS To investigate the relationship between quantitative iris parameters and angle closure disease. methods: Participants with angle closure were recruited prospectively from glaucoma clinics. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) was performed under standardised dark conditions. Customised software was used on horizontal AS-OCT scans to measure iris thickness at 750 um...
متن کاملAssociation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) Variants with Primary Angle Closure and Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma
Shorter axial length observed in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) might be due to altered matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) activity resulting in ECM remodeling during eye growth and development. This study aimed to evaluate common variants in MMP9 for association with PACG. Six tag SNPs of MMP9 were genotyped in a Chinese sample of 1,030 cases, including 572 PACG and 458 pri...
متن کاملChanges in choroidal thickness after trabeculectomy in primary angle closure glaucoma.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in choroidal thickness (CT) in advanced or late-stage primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) patients who had undergone trabeculectomy. METHODS This study included 23 eyes with PACG that required trabeculectomy. Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography was used to measure CT before and 7 days after trabeculectomy. The relatio...
متن کاملAnterior Choroidal Thickness Increased in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma and Primary Angle-Closure Disease Eyes Evidenced by Ultrasound Biomicroscopy and SS-OCT.
Purpose To compare the anterior and posterior choroid thickness (ACT and PCT, respectively) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), primary angle-closure disease (PACD), and healthy control subjects. Methods A total of 29 POAG patients (56 eyes), 37 PACD patients (64 eyes), and 34 healthy volunteers (68 eyes) were enrolled in this study; 50 POAG eyes were divided into 25 early/moderate-stage a...
متن کاملPeripheral iris thickness and association with iridotrabecular contact after laser peripheral iridotomy in patients with primary angle-closure and primary angle-closure glaucoma
PURPOSE To investigate the relation between the quantitative iris parameters and iridotrabecular contact (ITC) in patients with primary angle-closure (PAC) and PAC glaucoma (PACG). MATERIALS AND METHODS PAC and PACG with laser peripheral iridotomy were recruited prospectively. Anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT) was performed under light and dark conditions, and scans were t...
