[PMID: 38934849 DOI: 10.1097/ijg.0000000000002454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
PRCIS Different mechanisms of angle closure represented distinct aspects of intraocular pressure (IOP) control after phacoemulsification. Classification of angle closure mechanisms is necessary for postoperative IOP management and glaucoma progression in primary angle closure eyes. PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between the anterior chamber angle (ACA) characteristics, measured by swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS AS-OCT), and intraocular pressure (IOP) control after phacoemulsification in eyes with primary angle closure disease (PACD) with different angle closure mechanisms. METHODS PACD eyes were classified into 3 groups according to angle closure mechanisms using preoperative SS AS-OCT images; pupillary block (PB), plateau iris configuration (PIC), exaggerated lens vault (ELV). This retrospective, clinical cohort study included eighty-five eyes of 85 PACD patients: 34 with PB, 23 with PIC, and 28 with ELV. ACA parameters were measured preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively using SS AS-OCT. IOP measurements were performed preoperatively and during 6 months postoperatively. Postoperative IOP reduction and fluctuation were calculated, and their correlations with SS AS-OCT parameters were analyzed. RESULTS PIC group showed the lowest postoperative IOP reduction compared with the other groups ( P =0.023). Preoperative ACA measurements were significantly associated with postoperative IOP reduction in ELV and PB groups, while postoperative measurements were in PIC group. Preoperative and postoperative change of iridotrabecular contact (ITC) index and area were correlated with postoperative IOP reduction in PB and ELV groups but not in PIC group. Postoperative ITC index ( P =0.031) and area ( P =0.003) showed significant correlations with postoperative IOP fluctuation only in PIC group. CONCLUSIONS SS AS-OCT parameters including ITC index and area showed different associations with postoperative IOP control, which should be considered in determination of lens extraction and treatment of PACD eyes.

[PMID: 39150472 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-024-03255-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the predictive value of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) for postoperative corneal edema in cataract patients. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of 144 cataract patients from December 2020 to December 2021 was conducted. Patients were divided into edema eyes (84 cases) and observation (60 cases) group based on postoperative corneal edema occurrence. Relevant indicators were compared between groups. Logistic regression identified risk factors for postoperative corneal edema. Receiver operating characteristic curves evaluated the predictive value. RESULTS The edema eyes group had significantly higher postoperative central corneal thickness (CCT) and lower postoperative endothelial cell density (ECD) than the observation group (P < 0.05). The edema eyes group also had significantly lower preoperative ECD, anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber angle (ACA), and preoperative lens position (LP) than the observation group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative ECD, ACD, ACA, and LP were independent risk factors for postoperative corneal edema (P < 0.05), all of which also showed good predictive value for postoperative corneal edema, with areas under the curve (AUCs) of 0.854, 0.812, 0.791, and 0.778, respectively, under the ROC curve analysis. CONCLUSION AS-OCT can provide useful information for predicting postoperative corneal edema in cataract patients. Preoperative ECD, preoperative ACD, preoperative ACA, and preoperative LP are important parameters that can be measured by AS-OCT and used as risk factors for postoperative corneal edema.

Efficacy and Safety of Different Types of Intraocular Pressure-Lowering Surgeries in Patients with Primary Angle Closure (PAC) or PAC Glaucoma: Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials. Semin Ophthalmol 2024; 39:17-26. [PMID: 37296113 DOI: 10.1080/08820538.2023.2223292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect of different types of surgery available in the literature using a network meta-analysis (NMA) based on a systematic review. METHODS PubMed and the Cochrane database were searched. Randomized clinical trials involving surgical interventions for high IOP for PAC (primary angle closure) or PACG (primary angle closure glaucoma) were included. Descriptive statistics and outcomes were extracted. Bayesian NMA was performed to compare the IOP-lowering effect and the change in the number of antiglaucoma drugs required between baseline and endpoint, as well as success rates. RESULTS This NMA included 21 articles with 1237 eyes with PAC or PACG. Interventions were characterised as phacoemulsification (phaco), trabeculectomy, goniosynechialysis (GSL) with viscoelastic or blunt device, goniosurgery (GS) (trabeculotomy or goniotomy), micro-bypass stent (Istent®), endocyclophotocoagulation (ECPL) or various combinations of these procedures. Phaco+GSL [-1.73 (95%CrI: -3.53 to -0.13)] and phaco+GSL+GS [-3.92 (95%CrI: -6.91 to -1.31)] provided better IOP lowering effects than phaco alone. Phaco+trabeculectomy [-3.11 (95%CrI: -5.82 to -0.44)] was inferior to phaco+GSL+GS. Phaco+trabeculectomy [-0.45 (95%CrI: -0.81 to -0.13)] provided a better outcome in terms of reducing the need for antiglaucoma drug compared to phaco alone. There were no differences between the other surgeries in terms of reduction of antiglaucoma drug number and IOP lowering effect. Success rates were similar for all surgical procedures. CONCLUSIONS Phaco+GSL+GS showed the most promising results for lowering IOP. Phaco+trabeculectomy resulted in a significant reduction in the number of antiglaucoma drugs compared to phaco alone.

Abstract
The chronic use of glaucoma medications could improve the development of an ocular comorbidity, the glaucoma therapy-related ocular surface disease. This could be related to the exposure of the conjunctiva to preservatives, but also active compounds such as prostaglandin analogues may improve the risk of ocular surface inflammation. Inflammation has a negative impact on tolerability and adherence to eyedrops and to the outcome of filtration surgery as well. A stratification of glaucoma patients based not only on visual field progression but also on glaucoma therapy-related ocular surface disease would be desirable for a strategic management. Early diagnosis, individualized treatment, and safe surgical management should be the hallmarks of glaucoma treatment. One of the main issues for the proper and successful management of patients is the right timing, effectiveness and safety for both medical and surgical treatment options leading to a precision medicine in glaucoma disease as the best modern treatment.

Comparison of Lens Extraction Versus Laser Iridotomy on Anterior Segment, Choroid, and Intraocular Pressure in Primary Angle Closure Using Machine Learning. J Glaucoma 2023; 32:e43-e55. [PMID: 36730130 DOI: 10.1097/ijg.0000000000002145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
PRCIS Treatment strategy of primary angle closure (PAC) is not clear due to the large number of clinical and anatomic-topographic parameters in PAC, influencing the treatment algorithm. Using the machine learning method DD-SIMCA, we justify the expediency of early lens extraction (LE) in PAC. PURPOSE To compare the anatomic and functional efficacy of LE and laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) in patients with PAC using Machine Learning. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study included 120 patients aged 41-80 years: 60 eyes with PAC, 30 with PAC suspects, and 30 with healthy eyes (control). Thirty PAC eyes with intraocular pressure (IOP) up to 30 mm Hg were treated using LE with intraocular lens implantation and 30 eyes with LPI. All subjects underwent Swept Source optical coherence tomography. We analyzed 35 parameters of each eye including the lens vault, the choroidal thickness, the anterior chamber angle, and iris specifications such as iris curvature. Considering the correlations between them, the machine learning method DD-SIMCA 1-class classification was applied: the proximity of each sample to the target class (control) was characterized by the total distance to it. RESULTS After LE, IOP was significantly lower than after LPI ( P =0). Every third eye with PAC after LE reached the target class: specificity according to DD-SIMCA equals 0.67. This was not observed for the eyes after LPI: specificity equals 1.0. After LE, all parameters of the anterior chamber angle did not differ from the control (all P >0.05). After LPI, there was an increase in anterior chamber depth ( P =0) and a decrease in lens vault ( P =0), but results comparable to the control were achieved only for iris curvature ( P =1.000). CONCLUSION The efficacy of LE in PAC is higher than LPI due to the better postoperative anterior chamber topography and lower IOP. This study lends further clinical and anatomic support to the emerging notion of LE as an effective treatment for PAC.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the outcomes of combined phacoemulsification and viscogoniosynechialysis (VGSL) with and without endoscopic cyclophtocoagulation (ECP) in primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). METHODS In this prospective interventional case series 52 eyes of 50 patients were enrolled. Twenty-seven eyes underwent combined phacoemulsification and VGSL (PV group) and 25 eyes underwent the same procedure plus circumferential ECP (PVE group). All eyes were followed 1 day, 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after the procedure. Intraocular pressure and antiglaucoma medications were compared between and within groups using generalized estimating equations. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was carried out to compare intensity to failure between groups. RESULTS The mean ± SD age was 63.23 ± 6.87 years and 50% of the cases were male in the entire group. Intraocular pressure (IOP) and antiglaucoma medications were significantly reduced at all time points in comparison with the baseline in both groups (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between groups in either IOP or medications at specific time points (p > 0.05). One eye in each group developed a fibrinous reaction in the postoperative period. There was no statistically significant difference between groups regarding the intensity to failure (P = 0.169). CONCLUSION There were no significant differences in IOP and medication reduction between groups. Also, the complications were comparable between groups.

Abstract
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive method that provides the opportunity to examine tissues by taking cross-sectional images. OCT is increasingly being used to evaluate anterior segment (AS) pathologies. Swept-source (SS) OCT allows greater penetration and achieves better visualization of the internal configuration of AS tissues due to the longer wavelength employed and high scan speeds. We reviewed the utilization of AS SS-OCT in various conditions including glaucoma, ocular surface pathologies, iris tumors, refractive surgery, cataract surgery, and scleral diseases. A systematic literature search was carried out on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases between January 1, 2008, and September 1, 2022 using the following keywords: AS SS-OCT; dry eye and SS-OCT; ocular surface and SS-OCT; cornea and SS-OCT; dystrophy and SS-OCT; glaucoma and SS-OCT; ocular surface tumors and SS-OCT; conjunctival tumors and SS-OCT; refractive surgery and SS-OCT; cataract and SS-OCT; biometry and SS-OCT; sclera and SS-OCT; iris and SS-OCT; ciliary body and SS-OCT; artificial intelligence and SS-OCT. A total of 221 studies were included in this review. Review of the existing literature shows that SS-OCT offers several advantages in the diagnosis of AS diseases. Exclusive features of SS-OCT including rapid scanning, deeper tissue penetration, and better image quality help improve our understanding of various AS pathologies.
