Structure–Function Relationship and Vision-Related Quality of Life in Glaucoma Secondary to Anterior Uveitis: Comparison with Open Angle Glaucoma

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the structure–function characteristics and vision-related quality life (VR-QoL) in uveitic glaucoma (UG) compared with open-angle (OAG). Method: included 69 patients UG 138 primary open angle glaucoma, normal-tension glaucoma. A 25-item National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (VFQ-25) was used evaluate patients’ VR-QoL. retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) measured using optical coherence tomography, integrated visual field (IVF) determined best location method. Results: There were no significant differences binocular IVF mean deviation (MD) affected eye between OAG group, whereas average RNFLT thinner group (p = 0.008). showed a significantly lower composite score five subscales VFQ-25, those < 0.05, for all, general linear model). Multivariate regression analyses that strongest associations whole (β 1.240, p 0.001) association seen only inferior VF 0.596, 0.038). Conclusions: eyes exhibited distinctive worse VR-QoL differentiated them from eyes.
