原发性开角型和低压性青光眼早期视野及视网膜神经纤维层损害的比较

目的探讨原发性开角型青光眼（ｐｒｉｍａｒｙｏｐｅｎ－ａｎｇｌｅｇｌａｕｃｏｍａ，ＰＯＡＧ）和低压性青光眼（ｌｏｗｔｅｎｓｉｏｎｇｌａｕｃｏｍａ，ＬＴＧ）早期视野损害及视网膜神经纤维层缺损的特点。方法应用ＱＺＳ－２型自动视野计全阈值程序对２６例（４１只眼）早期ＰＯＡＧ和１３例（１５只眼）早期ＬＴＧ进行定量视野测定，所有患者散瞳做视盘和视网膜神经纤维层照像，分析视网膜神经纤维层缺损的类型和程度。结果早期ＰＯＡＧ和ＬＴＧ视野损害多表现为局限性视网膜光敏感度下降，少数表现为弥漫性光敏感度下降，视野损害主要位于中心视野，少数可合并周边视野损害。中心视野平均光敏感度和短期波动与正常对照组之间差异有显著性，两型青光眼早期视野损害和视网膜神经纤维层缺损的类型及损害部位分布差异无显著性。结论早期ＰＯＡＧ和ＬＴＧ视野损害特征及视网膜神经纤维层缺损形态一致     

Fluorescein fundus angiography of optic nerve head in primary open angle glaucoma and low tension glaucoma]

Fluorescein fundus angiography was performed at angle of 20 degrees in the 58 low tension glaucoma (LTG) eyes (30 cases) and 77 primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes (41 cases) and the relation of the optic nerve head fluorescein changes to visual field disturbances (stage classification of Kosaki) was compared between POAG and LTG groups. The filling defect of fluorescein in the deep area and the decrease in number of superficial capillaries were observed in the optic nerve head. The filling defect area of fluorescein in the optic nerve head corresponding to Bjerrum scotoma was recognized even in the mild visual field disturbance cases of both LTG and POAG. The following findings were noted in both LTG and POAG cases; expansion of the filling defect area and the decrease in number of superficial capillaries in the same area with progression of visual field disturbances. Filling defect area of fluorescein of the optic nerve head accorded with visual field disturbance area in 19 LTG eyes (32.8%) and 61 POAG eyes (79.2%). On the contrary, the filling defect area of the optic nerve head was wider than the visual disturbance area in 37 LTG eyes (63.8%) and 16 POAG eyes (20.8%). These findings suggest that blood circulatory disorders of the optic nerve head occurred earlier in LTG than in POAG and that the development of LTG might be closely associated with the blood circulatory disorders.     

Hemodynamic variables in progressive and non-progressive low tension glaucoma

Systemic blood pressure and medications for different general diseases were retrospectively examined in 30 low-tension glaucoma patients. Thirty patients with POAG were used as controls. LTG was divided into a progressive and non-progressive form on basis of the course of the disease. Systemic blood pressure was higher in POAG and the progressive form of LTG than in the non-progressive LTG. There was twice as much antihypertensive medication in LTG than POAG patients.     

原发性开角型青光眼视野损害进展相关因素的随访研究

目的：探究原发性开角型青光眼(POAG)患者视野损害进展的相关因素,为临床POAG患者更准确高效的随访提供思路。

方法：前瞻性病例系列研究。将POAG患者39例77眼纳入随访研究,详细询问病史后,进行眼内压(IOP)测量,视野检查及神经纤维层(RNFL)厚度测量,每3mo 1次,共连续随访7次。对患者的家族史、吸烟及饮酒史、年龄、性别、是否手术、IOP波动、基线视野缺损程度、随访期间RNFL厚度变化与视野损害进展进行相关性分析。

结果：随访期间RNFL厚度变化程度与视野损害进展呈正相关(P<0.05)。基线视野缺损程度与视野损害进展有关,中度基线视野缺损与视野损害进展相关性最大,轻度次之,重度最小。

结论：RNFL的厚度变化可能为POAG患者进展性随访提供有用信息; 轻度和重度视野缺损患者进展性的判断应结合视野外信息。     

24小时血压参数与原发性开角型青光眼视神经损害的相关性

目的：研究24 h血压参数与原发性开角型青光眼（POAG）视神经损害之间的相关性。方法：病例对照研究。选择2013年6月至2016年12月期间成都市第一人民医院确诊的60例POAG患者作为POAG组,55 例正常人群作为对照组。2 组均进行24 h眼压和血压的同步监测,比较2 组受检者24 h血压参数、眼灌注压及眼压的差异,并分析POAG组患者24 h血压参数、眼灌注压及眼压与相关视功能之间的关系。采用独立样本t检验和多重线性回归等进行统计学分析。结果：①POAG组的24 h平均眼压、眼压差、眼灌注压差及脉压差显著高于对照组,2 组差异均有统计学意义（t =3.22、6.57、2.29、2.39,P ＜0.05）。②POAG组平均收缩压显著高于对照组（t =3.02,P =0.003）,其收缩压最高值、收缩压波动值、夜间平均收缩压、夜间最高收缩压及其波动值均显著高于对照组（t =4.38、5.27、4.13、4.13、 4.14,P ＜0.001）。③POAG组24 h平均舒张压、舒张压最高值、夜间平均舒张压、夜间舒张压最高值也显著高于对照组（t =2.22、2.50、2.29、2.10,P ＜0.05）。④POAG组患者的24 h血压相关参数与视神经损害相关性：平均眼压是POAG视野的平均缺损值（MD）的影响因素,二者呈负相关（b =-0.44,P =0.004）;盘周平均视网膜神经纤维层（RNFL）厚度与平均眼压（b =-0.956,P =0.001）、眼压差（b =-1.125,P =0.003）呈负相关;夜间平均舒张压（b =0.395,P ＜0.001）和夜间平均动脉压（b =0.046,P =0.001）分别与AP100和AP50值呈正相关。结论：①24 h血压相关参数与POAG的视神经损害之间存在相关性;②夜间眼灌注压、夜间舒张压和夜间动脉压可能是POAG视神经损害的影响因素;③在POAG的治疗中,稳定的血压和靶眼压有利于保持有效的稳定的眼灌注压,提示在关注降眼压治疗POAG的同时应该关注血压的变化。

Long-term relationship between intraocular pressure and visual field loss in primary open-angle glaucoma

PURPOSE: To investigate the dependence upon intraocular pressure (IOP) of the progression of visual field defects in eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), in which the mean IOP was maintained at < or =21 mm Hg. METHODS: This study involved 100 eyes with POAG, which were followed up for > or =5 years. The mean IOP levels were maintained at < or =21 mm Hg during the follow-up period. The relationship between the IOP and the progression of visual field defects, which was scored using the Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study criteria, was investigated retrospectively. RESULTS: Compared with the baseline scores, the visual field defect scores had significantly worsened by the end of the follow-up period (P<0.0001, Wilcoxon paired signed rank test). The change in the visual field defect score (2.5+/-0.5) in eyes with average IOP levels of > or =16 mm Hg (n=36) was significantly greater (P=0.031, Mann-Whitney U test) than the change (1.3+/-0.3) in eyes with average IOP levels of <16 mm Hg (n=64). Moreover, IOP of > or =18 mm Hg made a major contribution to the aggravation of visual field defects in eyes with POAG. CONCLUSIONS: Eyes with POAG and with mean IOP levels maintained at < or =21 mm Hg underwent IOP-dependent progression of their visual field defects. Our results suggest that further IOP lowering would be beneficial in such cases.     

原发性开角型青光眼视神经损害进展与眼压波动及视盘旁萎缩弧扩大的关系

目的 分析原发性开角型青光眼（POAG）视神经损害进展的相关危险因素。设计 回顾性病例系列。 研究对象 北京同仁医院眼科门诊确诊的POAG、随访3年以上、眼底照片及眼压资料完整的患者115例（197眼）。方法 将患者初次就诊和末次就诊的眼底图片在计算机图像处理软件下进行图像配准,通过叠加闪烁对比观察眼底病变的细微改变。平均随访（56.6±14.8）个月。青光眼视神经损害进展的标准为盘沿丢失进展或伴有视网膜神经纤维层缺损进展。主要指标 可能导致青光眼视神经损害进展的多因素Logistic回归分析。结果 视神经损害进展98眼,未进展99眼,进展率49.75%。单因素Logistic回归分析显示视神经损害进展与眼压波动（P=0.000）、峰值眼压（P=0.001）及随访时间（P=0.041）有关;卡方检验显示视神经损害进展与盘沿出血（P=0.02）及视盘旁萎缩弧扩大（P=0.000）有关。多因素Logistic 回归分析显示视神经损害进展与眼压波动（P=0.000）及视盘旁萎缩弧扩大（P=0.000）有关。视神经损害进展组与未进展组相比,眼压波动明显大,前者眼压波动值平均为（2.87±1.29）（0.89～7.21）,后者眼压波动值平均为（2.11±0.94）（0.25～4.97）;并且视盘旁萎缩弧扩大的比例明显增高,视神经损害进展组无β区萎缩弧者5眼（5.1%）,有β区萎缩弧扩大者75眼（76.53%）。结论 除峰值眼压外,过大的眼压波动及β区萎缩弧扩大是POAG视神经损害进展的重要危险因素。（眼科,2012,21：39-42）     

Long-term intraocular pressure fluctuation and visual field progression in glaucoma patients with low intraocular pressure after post-trabeculectomy phacoemulsification.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of long-term intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation and visual field progression in glaucoma patients with low IOP after post-trabeculectomy phacoemulsification. METHODS: A total of 688 eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG) were included in this study. The patients always had an IOP below 18 mmHg after post-trabeculectomy phacoemulsification. Visual field testing using the standard automated perimetry was periodically performed at 3 months and for at least 3 years postoperatively. The mean deviation on visual field was compared according to the standard deviation (SD) of the postoperative IOP (SD < or = 2 mmHg group vs. SD > 2 mmHg group). RESULTS: Preoperative and postoperative IOPs during the follow-up period did not differ significantly between the two study groups. Even though the mean deviations on visual field at postoperative 3 months were not different between the two groups, the mean deviations at the last follow-up were significantly worse in the postoperative IOP SD > 2 mmHg group than the postoperative IOP SD < or = 2 mmHg group. CONCLUSIONS: Less postoperative IOP fluctuation was statistically associated with a slower progression of visual field damage in POAG and CPACG patients who kept low IOPs after the post-trabeculectomy phacoemulsification.     

原发性开角型青光眼与24h眼压及眼灌注压的研究进展

原发性开角型青光眼是一类早期无明显临床症状,但随病情进展将导致不可逆的视神经损害及视野缺损的致盲性眼病。眼压是原发性开角型青光眼诊断及评定治疗效果的简单而又重要的指标。临床上,一些治疗中的原发性开角型青光眼患者白天就诊时间所测眼压已达靶眼压,但视神经损害却仍在进展,研究表明可能与夜间眼压的升高、24 h较大的眼压波动及夜间眼灌注压的降低有关。因此,我们对原发性开角型青光眼与眼压及眼灌注压波动的相关文献予以综述,以更好的理解三者之间的关系。     

The influence of the intraocular pressure on the visual field of low tension glaucoma

To study the effect of the intraocular pressure (IOP) on the visual field (VF) damage in low tension glaucoma (LTG), we compared the IOP and the VF damage in both eyes of 46 LTG patients. As an index of the VF damage, we used the mean deviation (MD) value calculated by the Humphry (30-2) STATPAC program, and for the IOP data, the mean of 24 hour IOP measurements (diurnal IOP) and the mean of the IOPs measured at each visit to our outpatient clinics (follow-up IOP). In 13 cases, the diurnal and the follow-up IOPs were 0.3 mmHg higher or more in the more damaged eye than those in the less damaged eye, and in 7 cases they were 0.3 mmHg higher or more in the less damaged eye than those in the more damaged eye. Between these two groups, no significant difference was seen in the value of MD, but the diurnal IOP and the follow-up IOP was significantly higher in the former than in the latter group. By discrimination analysis, the two groups were distinguished at the diurnal IOP of 14.1 mmHg (hit rate 77.6%) and the follow-up IOP of 15.0 mmHg (74.2%). An analysis using the whole 46 LTG cases yielded the following results: when the diurnal or follow-up IOP of the more damaged eye was higher than the above determined level, the IOP in the more damaged eye was significantly higher than that in the contralateral less damaged eye.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Asymmetries and visual field summaries as predictors of glaucoma in the ocular hypertension treatment study

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether baseline visual field data and asymmetries between eyes predict the onset of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study (OHTS) participants. METHODS: A new index, mean prognosis (MP), was designed for optimal combination of visual field thresholds, to discriminate between eyes that developed POAG from eyes that did not. Baseline intraocular pressure (IOP) in fellow eyes was used to construct measures of IOP asymmetry. Age-adjusted baseline thresholds were used to develop indicators of visual field asymmetry and summary measures of visual field defects. Marginal multivariate failure time models were constructed that relate the new index MP, IOP asymmetry, and visual field asymmetry to POAG onset for OHTS participants. RESULTS: The marginal multivariate failure time analysis showed that the MP index is significantly related to POAG onset (P < 0.0001) and appears to be a more highly significant predictor of POAG onset than either mean deviation (MD; P = 0.17) or pattern standard deviation (PSD; P = 0.046). A 1-mm Hg increase in IOP asymmetry between fellow eyes is associated with a 17% increase in risk for development of POAG. When threshold asymmetry between eyes existed, the eye with lower thresholds was at a 37% greater risk of development of POAG, and this feature was more predictive of POAG onset than the visual field index MD, though not as strong a predictor as PSD. CONCLUSIONS: The MP index, IOP asymmetry, and binocular test point asymmetry can assist in clinical evaluation of eyes at risk of development of POAG.     

Primary open angle glaucoma and low tension glaucoma--pathogenesis and mechanism of optic nerve damage]

The etiology, pathogenesis and mechanism of optic nerve damage in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and low tension glaucoma (LTG) were investigated by experimental glaucoma in monkey and by follow-up studies of many patients over 15 years, by pathohistological and immunohistochemical analysis. 1) LTG was proved to be a real glaucoma, showing pressure-dependent optic nerve damage. The pathological entity was a primary weakness of the lamina cribrosa (LC), and therefore even normal pressure could deform the LC. Due to backward distortion of LC the channels were disarranged and twisted, inducing mechanical optic nerve damage. There was no active vascular damage or vascular constriction at the site of the optic nerve damage. The filling defects of the advanced glaucomatous optic disc were not the cause of optic nerve damage, but the result of regressive vascular change after axon bundle loss. Splinter hemorrhage of the optic disc might be the result of the same process. 2) The weakness of LC might be induced by the abnormal metabolism of the extracellular matrix of the LC. 3) To arrest the progressive optic nerve damage in LTG, the intraocular pressure (IOP) should be maintained under 12, or ideally, 10 mmHg. 4) The optic nerve damage in POAG was not only pressure-dependent, but also dependent on the weakness of the LC, as in the case of LTG. In the early stage the IOP should be under 19 mmHg, in the advanced stage under 14 mmHg in order to arrest progression for over 15 years. 5) In advanced experimental glaucoma of monkeys, the LC showed reduction of elastin, fragmentation of collagen, and change of proteoglycans. 6) As in the LC, the trabecular meshwork also showed abnormal metabolism and abnormal deposits on the extracellular matrix in POAG, and LTG as well. 7) POAG and LTG might belong to the same family in which common abnormal metabolism of LC and trabecular meshwork induce various clinical features.     

Quantification and progression of the visual field defect in glaucoma without hypertension, glaucoma simplex and pigmentary glaucoma. A clinical study with the Delta Program of the 201 Octopus perimeter

Visual field defects of stages I-IV, in 451 eyes of 451 glaucoma patients, were examined with the Octopus 201 perimeter: 83 patients with low-tension glaucoma (LTG), 316 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and 52 patients with pigmentary glaucoma (PG). Program 31 or 33 was used, with an eccentricity range of up to 30 degrees, 73 test points, and a 6 degrees grid. The mean total field loss (TL) as well as the mean loss per test point (TL/TP) in the 30 degrees field, in the field quadrants, and in the eccentricity ranges from 0-10 degrees, 10-20 degrees, and 20-30 degrees were calculated for each patient with Program Delta. In addition, for each visual field the quotient of total loss and of the number of disturbed test points was calculated, providing a measurement of the mean depth of the field defects. For definition and comparison of visual fields in the different glaucomas at identical stages of the disease according to the amount of TL, the 3 patient groups were subdivided into 4 stages of sensitivity loss: Stage 1: TL less than or equal to 100 dB; Stage 2: TL 101-400 dB; Stage 3: TL 401-800 dB; Stage 4: 801-1600 dB. The results of a comparison of eyes with LTG, POAG, and PG at the same stage of disease were as follows: I. Location of scotomas: 1. Defects more frequent in the lower field in LTG as compared to POAG in stage 2. 2. Defects more frequent in the upper than in the lower field in POAG. 3. Almost equal number of defects in the upper and lower halves in PG. 4. In all 3 glaucoma types the defects are more frequently found in the nasal than in the temporal half of the visual field. 5. In LTG and POAG of all stages the defects are most frequently found in the upper nasal and most seldom in the lower temporal quadrant. 6. In all glaucoma types the defects occur on average most frequently between 10 degrees and 20 degrees of eccentricity. 7. With increasing IOP in POAG the scotomas tend to be equally distributed in the upper and lower quadrants. II. Depth of scotomas: 1. Scotomas are deepest in LTG; they are less deep in POAG, and least deep in PG. 2. In PG the mean scotoma depth depends significantly on maximum IOP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Visual field change and risk factors for progression of visual field damage in low tension glaucoma]

The authors carried out a prospective study in an attempt to determine the possible effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) and some clinical factors on the clinical course of low tension glaucoma (LTG). During the study period all the patients were followed without any antiglaucoma medication. The enrollment criteria for the study were reproducible, mild to moderate field loss as defined as a mean defect (MD) of greater than 2 dB and less than 10 dB or corrected loss variance (CLV) of greater than 7 dB revealed by the Octopus 201, G1 program. Forty-two consecutive patients (56 eyes) who fulfilled this criteria were enrolled. Baseline and follow-up examinations included applanation tonometry, perimetry with G1 program, blood pressure and pulse rate. When the MD increased by 4 dB or more on two consecutive perimetry examinations, the field defect was judged as "progressed". During the follow-up period (6-51 months, 25.1 +/- 12.5 months), the field defect progressed in 14 eyes of 12 patients. The life-table analysis (Kaplan-Meier) revealed that the rate of nonprogression of visual field defects was 55.5% at 48 months. The rate of nonprogression was significantly lower in 16 eyes with a mean IOP equal to or higher than 15 mmHg as opposed to 40 eyes with that lower than 15 mmHg (34.3% and 67.2% respectively, p less than 0.05). The results seem to indicate that IOP is likely to be responsible for the aggravation of visual fields in LTG. Canonical discriminant analysis revealed that the discriminant function containing four variables gives the best separation between the "progressed" and "nonprogressed" group (discriminant efficacy: 83.9%).
