Background: We report a patient who was diagnosed as having steroid-induced glaucoma after radial keratotomy (RK) and who suffered from severe visual field defect.Case: A 29-year-old man underwent RK for both eyes. After the operation, he was treated for six months with topical medication including 0.1% and 0.01% betamethasone without an intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement. When he consulted an ophthalmologist, his IOP was 43 mmHg in the right eye and 51 mmHg in the left eye. At our initial examination, his IOP was 8 mmHg in the right eye and 10 mmHg in the left eye. He was taking 750 mg acetazolamide peroral, 0.5% timolol maleate, and latanoprost eyedrops. There were 16 RK incisions on the cornea and we found severe glaucomatous visual field loss. Finally we performed trabeculotomy in both eyes for IOP control with conservative therapy.Conclusion: As keratorefractive surgery becomes popular, we must be alert for problems, such as steroid-induced glaucoma, and the change in refraction following the change in IOP.

PURPOSE: To report steroid-induced glaucoma after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). METHODS: A 50-year-old Japanese woman was referred for endstage glaucoma 9 months after PRK. Topical fluorometholone 0.1% was administered for corneal subepithelial haze in both eyes for 9 months after PRK. Pneumatic non-contact tonometry values of intraocular pressure (IOP) remained normal (range: 11 to 17 mmHg), until she was diagnosed with end-stage steroid-induced glaucoma with extensive restriction in visual fields. At the patient's initial examination in our hospital, IOP measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry was 34 mmHg in the right eye and 32 mmHg in the left eye, but the estimated IOP as corrected by central corneal thickness measurement was >40 mmHg in both eyes. RESULTS: The patient underwent uneventful bilateral trabeculectomies, resulting in reduction of IOP to <10 mmHg in both eyes. CONCLUSIONS: The underestimation of IOP after PRK led to advanced visual field loss. Careful evaluation of IOP, optic disc, and visual field tests are indispensable to avoid such a devastating outcome after PRK. 相似文献

The long-term outcome of trabeculectomy in advanced glaucoma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
PURPOSE: We evaluated retrospectively the surgical outcome of trabeculectomy in patients with advanced glaucoma. METHODS: We studied 18 eyes of 18 patients with advanced glaucoma (mean age: 71.2 years, mean follow-up period: 41.1 months). In each eye, the visual field was at stage 5 of Aulhorn-Greve's classification before surgery. RESULTS: Two eyes showed extreme hypotony (< 2 mmHg) 3 days after surgery and lost the central visual field permanently. Another 2 of 4 eyes which could not be maintained below 15 mmHg showed a worsening of visual field disturbance within stage 5 of Aulhorn-Greve's classification. The final visual acuity was 0.7 or better in 9 eyes (50.0%), 0.1 or worse in 2 eyes (11.1%). The final intraocular pressure (IOP) was below 10 mmHg without and with medication in 8 eyes (44.4%) and 2 eyes (11.1%) respectively. The final IOP was below 15 mmHg without and with medication in 11 eyes (61.1%) and 3 eyes (16.7%) respectively. Postoperative complications were observed in 4 eyes (22.2%). CONCLUSIONS: The cause of postoperative central visual field worsening was associated with extreme intraocular hypotony (2 mmHg) rather than IOP elevation due to bleb dysfunction. This surgery may be effective as 14 eyes (78%) were able to maintain visual acuity and the central visual field. 相似文献

To evaluate the success rates of transscleral diode cyclophotocoagulation (TD-CPC) for refractory secondary glaucoma in a paediatric patient with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Report of a case of a 6-year-old boy suffering from severe uveitis, and secondary open angle glaucoma. The patient had undergone bilateral cataract surgery, two prior trabeculectomies in the left and one in the right eye. He was under systemic immunomodulation with methotrexate and cyclosporine. He presented with medically uncontrolled glaucoma, with an intraocular pressure (IOP) of 36 and 34 mmHg in the right and left eye, respectively, under maximal medical antiglaucoma therapy. TD-CPC was performed under general anesthesia, including a total of 20 spots in the right and 34 in the left eye (2,000 mW, 2 s/spot) applied in one session. Visual acuity remained stable in the right eye and deteriorated in the left eye from 0.1 to no light perception. Postoperative hypotony was present 1 month post op and IOP was 14 mmHg in the left and 17 mmHg in the right eye, respectively, in the 6-month follow-up with a topical beta-blocker. The anterior chamber was quiet in both eyes. TD-CPC was effective in the short term as IOP lowering therapy in a pediatric patient with refractory uveitic glaucoma. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The European Glaucoma Prevention Study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of reducing intraocular pressure (IOP), with dorzolamide to prevent or delay patients affected by ocular hypertension from developing primary open-angle glaucoma. DESIGN: Randomized, double-blinded, controlled clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS: Patients (age > or =30 years) were enrolled from 18 European centers. The patients fulfilled a series of inclusion criteria including the measurements of IOP (22-29 mmHg), two normal and reliable visual fields (VFs) (on the basis of mean defect and corrected pattern standard deviation/corrected loss of variance of standard 30/II Humphrey or Octopus perimetry), and normal optic disc as determined by the Optic Disc Reading Center (vertical and horizontal cup-to-disc ratios; asymmetry between the two eyes < or =0.4). INTERVENTION: Patients were randomized to the treatment with dorzolamide or a placebo. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: End points are VF and/or optic disc changes. A VF change during the follow-up must be confirmed by two further positive tests. Optic disc change is defined by the agreement of two out of three independent observers evaluating optic disc stereo-slides. RESULTS: One thousand seventy-seven subjects were randomized between January 1, 1997 and May 31, 1999. The mean age was 57.03 +/- 10.3 years; 54.41% were women and 99.9% were Caucasian. Mean IOP was 23.6 +/- 1.6 mmHg in both eyes. Mean visual acuity was 0.97 +/- 0.11 in both eyes; mean refraction was 0.23 +/- 1.76 diopters in the right eye and 0.18 +/- 1.79 diopters in the left eye. Previous use of medication for ocular hypertension was reported by 38.4% of the patients, systemic hypertension by 28.1%, cardiovascular diseases by 12.9%, and diabetes mellitus by 4.7%. The qualifying VFs were normal and reliable according to protocol criteria. CONCLUSIONS: The mean IOP of the patients enrolled in the European Glaucoma Prevention Study is consistent with the estimated mean IOP (within the range of 22-29 mmHg) found in a large sample of the European population. The European Glaucoma Prevention Study should be able to better address the clinical question of whether pharmacological reduction of IOP (by means of dorzolamide) in ocular hypertension patients at moderate risk for developing primary open-angle glaucoma effectively lowers the incidence of primary open-angle glaucoma. 相似文献

A 26-year-old male presented to us with defective vision in the left eye. He had best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of hand movement (HM) in right eye and 6/9 in left eye. He had ptosis with ectropion in both eyes and relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) in right eye. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was 46 and 44 mmHg in right and left eye, respectively. Fundus showed glaucomatous optic atrophy (GOA) in right eye and cup disc ratio (CDR) of 0.75 with bipolar rim thinning in left eye. Systemic examination showed hyperextensible skin and joints, acrogeria, hypodontia, high arched palate, and varicose veins. He gave history of easy bruising and tendency to fall and history of intestinal rupture 5 years ago for which he had undergone surgery. He was diagnosed as a case of Type IV Ehler-Danlos syndrome (EDS) with open angle glaucoma. He underwent trabeculectomy in both eyes. This is a rare case that shows glaucoma in a patient of EDS Type IV. Very few such cases have been reported in literature. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP) after cessation of steroid use in steroid-induced glaucoma and its control with medication or surgery. METHODS: Thirty-four eyes of 34 patients having steroid-induced glaucoma were prospectively evaluated after cessation of steroid for IOP, visual acuity, and optic disc status at 3 months, and every 3 months for 18 months. RESULTS: Topical steroid use (73.5%) was the most frequent cause for glaucoma. The baseline IOP was 35.47+/-12.59 mmHg. The baseline vertical cup-disc ratio correlated with duration of steroid use (P=0.014) and the baseline IOP (P<0.0001). In 25 patients (73.5%), IOP could be controlled by topical medications alone, whereas nine patients (26.5%) required surgery. The mean baseline IOP in eyes requiring surgery was 49.67+/-13.28 mmHg and in eyes managed medically, 30.36+/-7.51 mmHg (P=0.002). The vertical cup-disc ratio in surgically treated patient was 0.87+/-0.13:1 as compared to 0.71+/-0.15:1 (P=0.012) in the medically treated group. At 6, 12, and 18 months follow-up, 22 (64.7%), 33 (97.1%), and all 34 (100%) patients were off treatment, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with steroid-induced glaucoma, who were 相似文献

PURPOSE: To report the results of ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM) cases of ciliochoroidal effusion after a lens-induced glaucoma attack. CASES: Case 1 was an 83-year-old female. She had shallow anterior chamber with expanded cataract with exfoliation in her right eye. Intraocular pressure(IOP) of the right eye was 64 mmHg. On the next day, IOP was reduced to 16 mmHg by conservative therapy. UBM showed circumference ciliochoroidal effusion in the right eye. On the 5th day, IOP increased to 38 mmHg. UBM was repeated and showed the disappearance of ciliochoroidal effusion. On the 9th day, phacoemulsification was done to treat the lens induced glaucoma attack. Two weeks after operation, IOP of the right eye was 6 mmHg and UBM showed ciliochoroidal effusion. Case 2 was an 85-year-old female. She had been diagnosed by an ophthalmologist as having an attack of lens-induced glaucoma in her left eye. IOP was 46 mmHg. When she was referred to us, IOP was decreased to 24 mmHg and ciliochoroidal effusion was observed in her left eye by UBM. CONCLUSION: We report two cases of ciliochoroidal effusion associated with lens-induced glaucoma attack. UBM is useful to observe changes in the ciliary body after lens-induced glaucoma attack. 相似文献

Changes in intraocular pressure following diagnostic mydriasis with cyclopentolate 1% 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PURPOSE: To assess the effect of diagnostic mydriasis with 1% cyclopentolate on the intraocular pressure (IOP) of patients attending glaucoma, medical retina and cataract clinics. METHODS: Levels of agreement for IOP assessment were determined and 95% of repeated readings found to be within +/-2 mmHg. The IOP of 83 cataract, 87 medical retinal and 100 glaucoma patients was measured with Goldmann applanation tonometry before and 45 min after dilatation with 1% cyclopentolate. Those showing a substantial (>10 mmHg) increase in IOP underwent gonioscopy to determine if their angles remained open and were medically treated to lower their IOP. RESULTS: An approximately normal distribution of change in IOP following dilatation was seen in all three groups (mean change 0.4 mmHg (95% CI 0.1-0.8)). The proportion of patients with a rise of 5 mmHg or more in the right eye was 7% (95% CI 4-10%). Logistic regression using all right eyes, looking at age, sex, diagnosis, ethnicity, ocular medication, iris colour and lens status (phakic/pseudophakic/aphakic) as risk factors for a rise of IOP of 5 mmHg or more did not reveal any significant contribution. Correlation between results obtained for right and left eyes in the glaucoma group was lower (0.43) than for the other groups (0.66 and 0.72), but the extent to which the direction of change in one eye predicted that in the other was shown to be high. Two glaucoma patients with open angles developed a clinically important (>10 mmHg) sustained rise in IOP requiring treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Individual variability in the effects of cyclopentolate on aqueous dynamics may account for the approximately normal distribution of IOP seen following dilatation in all three groups. This variation was in excess of that due to observation error alone. It is recommended that the IOP be rechecked after dilation in glaucoma patients with significantly damaged optic nerve heads. In medical retina and cataract patients, sustained clinically important rises in intraocular pressure following dilation seem rarer. 相似文献

Purpose: To evaluate the amount of intraocular pressure (IOP) change in the eye against the pillow in the lateral decubitus position (LDP). Methods: Thirty eyes from 15 healthy volunteers (12 men and three women) aged 29 ± 3 (range 25–37) years participated in this study. Using the rebound tonometer (Icare PRO, Icare Finland Oy, Helsinki, Finland), the IOP of both eyes was checked in sitting, supine, right and left LDPs. In the LDP, the additional IOP measurements were taken with the lower eyeball against the latex pillow. Results: Baseline IOP in the sitting position was 12.7 ± 1.9 mmHg in the right eye and 12.8 ± 2.2 mmHg in the left eye. Ten minutes after shifting from the sitting to the supine position, IOP increased significantly (right eye: +1.4 ± 1.4 mmHg, p = 0.006; left eye: +1.8 ± 1.5 mmHg, p = 0.001). Changing from the supine to the right and left LDP increased significantly the IOP of dependent eye (right eye: +2.3 ± 1.8 mmHg, p = 0.001; left eye: +1.5 ± 1.8 mmHg, p = 0.011). When the dependent eye was compressed against the pillow in the LDP, the IOP of the dependent eyes increased significantly after 10 min (right eye in the right LDP: +4.1 ± 4.9 mmHg, p = 0.011; left eye in the left LDP: +3.4 ± 3.7 mmHg, p = 0.006). Conclusion: The IOP was significantly elevated when the eyeball was against the pillow in the LDP. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To report a case of pigmentary glaucoma treated with medical therapy, laser treatment, and trabeculotomy. CASE: A 36-year-old man presented with the characteristic Krukenberg spindle on the corneal endothelial surface and heavily pigmented trabecular meshwork. He was diagnosed with pigmentary glaucoma and was initially placed on medical therapy which became less effective over time in controlling intraocular pressure (IOP). Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealing bilateral reverse pupillary block and laser iridotomy was performed in both eyes to eliminate irido-zonular contact causing pigment dispersion. However, argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) was subsequently performed in both eyes due to insufficient IOP control. The left eye responded well to ALT, and postoperative IOP has been 14-16 mmHg with medication. On the other hand, the right eye required selective laser trabeculoplasty for uncontrolled IOP after ALT. With little improvement in IOP control after laser treatment, the right eye eventually underwent trabeculotomy which resulted in long-term success in controlling IOP at about 16 mmHg and in preventing the progression of glaucomatous damage. CONCLUSION: Improvement in IOP control with trabeculotomy was confirmed in a case of pigmentary glaucoma with heavily pigmented trabecular meshwork. Further studies are needed for evaluation of the management of pigmentary glaucoma. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical differences between the two groups depending on the peak intraocular pressure(IOP) in patients with normal-tension glaucoma(NTG). METHODS: We studied 96 eyes of 48 NTG patients who were hospitalized for diurnal IOP measurement. Then we selected the eye whose peak IOP was higher than the other, or the right eye if the peak IOP of both eyes was equal. We divided these eyes into a "high-teen" group (peak IOP > or = 16 mmHg) and a "low-teen" group(peak IOP < or = 15 mmHg). We compared these two groups by age, gender, refraction, IOP, visual field defect, optic disc appearance, and tomograph. We used a Humphrey C 30-2 program to estimate the visual field defect and classified the optic disc into four types according to Nicolela's criteria. 22 eyes were imaged with Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) to obtain topographic parameters of the optic disc. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in age, gender, refraction, optic disc appearance, or tomograph between two groups. The trough and variation range of diurnal IOP were significantly larger in the high-teen group(p < 0.01). The value of mean deviation(MD) given by STATPAC was statistically lower in the high-teen group(p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with NTG, the visual field damage tended to be greater in the high-teen group than in the low-teen group. We surmise that the IOP might influence the progression of visual field defect in NTG. 相似文献

Correlation between intraocular pressure level and optic disc changes in high-tension glaucoma suspects 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
PURPOSE: To assess the correlation between intraocular pressure (IOP) and future optic disc changes in eyes of patients suspected of having high-tension glaucoma and to determine the target pressure in eyes of patients suspected of having high-tension glaucoma. DESIGN: Prospective, comparative, observational case series. PARTICIPANTS: Fifty-seven eyes of 57 patients suspected of having high-tension glaucoma selected from 226 consecutive patients with glaucoma or suspected glaucoma. INTERVENTION: The status of the optic disc and visual fields was evaluated during an initial examination by confocal laser ophthalmoscopy and automatic perimetry, respectively. Fifty-seven eyes were followed up for at least 2.5 years and then underwent a final examination. IOP was measured every 3 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The correlation between changes in optic disc status and IOP control during follow-up was determined. Changes in the optic disc were evaluated by using the percentage change in total contour area, neuroretinal rim area, and cup-to-disc ratio. The control IOPs were evaluated on the basis of the percentage of time during which IOP was <18 mmHg (%<18 mmHg control) and <21 mmHg (%<21 mmHg control) during follow-up in each eye. The correlation between visual field changes and IOP control was also analyzed. RESULTS: Results from 48 (84.2%) of 57 participants were included. Patients were followed up for a mean 4.4 years. The %<21 mmHg control was significantly correlated with changes in neuroretinal rim area (r = 0.40; P = 0.0055) and in cup-to-disc ratio (r = -0.40; P = 0.0051) by linear regression analysis. The correlations were also significant if the difference in the length of follow-up was adjusted by multivariate regression analysis. There was no significant correlation between %<18 mmHg control and changes in disc parameters. Seven (14.6%) of 48 eyes had glaucomatous visual field defects at the final examination. The %<21 mmHg control was significantly lower in eyes with visual field changes compared with eyes with no changes (P = 0.0153; unpaired t test). In contrast, %<18 mmHg control was not significantly different between eyes with and without visual field changes (P = 0.3886). CONCLUSIONS: The IOP level correlates with topographic changes in the optic disc in eyes of patients suspected of having high-tension glaucoma. The target pressure for such eyes may need to be between 18 and 21 mmHg, and <18 mmHg is a safe target level in the treatment of patients suspected of having high-tension glaucoma to delay topographic optic disc changes. 相似文献

Purpose: To investigate the effect of change of body posture from supine to lateral decubitus position (LDP) on intraocular pressure (IOP) in healthy young subjects. Methods: We evaluated 38 eyes of 19 healthy young Korean subjects. IOP was measured using Tonopen XL® in both eyes in the sitting and supine position, 5 and 30 min after right LDP and 5 min after returning to the supine position. A week later, IOP was measured in the same sequence except that the subjects assumed the left LDP. The eye on the lower side in the LDP was termed as a dependent eye. Results: The mean IOP of the dependent eyes increased significantly at 5 min after changing from supine to right (16.26 ± 2.73 mmHg versus 18.54 ± 2.95 mmHg, p < 0.01) or left LDP (15.53 ± 2.41 mmHg versus 17.53 ± 3.37 mmHg, p < 0.01); this IOP increase in the dependent eyes persisted at 30 min after changing to right (18.47 ± 2.97 mmHg, p < 0.01) or left LDP (17.79 ± 2.20 mmHg, p < 0.01). Upon returning to the supine position, IOP of the dependent eyes decreased significantly (16.83 ± 2.67 mmHg, p < 0.01 for right LDP and 16.47 ± 2.32 mmHg, p < 0.01 for left). However, this effect of the positional change was not found in the non‐dependent eyes (all, p > 0.05). Mean IOP in the dependent eye was significantly higher than that in the non‐dependent eye at 30 min after changing to the right (+0.89 ± 1.52 mmHg) or left LDP (+1.84 ± 2.03 mmHg). Conclusion: The postural change from supine to LDP significantly increased IOP of the dependent eyes. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate the longterm outcome of therapy for chronic primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and to assess the efficacy of medical and surgical treatment in terms of intraocular pressure (IOP) and visual field stabilization. METHODS: Seventy consecutive patients with chronic PACG, whose IOP remained > 21 mmHg despite a patent iridotomy, had their IOP controlled by medications or trabeculectomy performed without antimetabolites. They were followed over a 6-year period. Best corrected visual acuity, IOP (mean of annual diurnal variation readings), cup : disc ratio and visual fields were recorded. A trabeculectomy was performed if the IOP was not adequately controlled on maximal tolerable medical therapy or if there was a progression of the glaucomatous defect. Data from one eye of each patient were analysed; if both eyes met the inclusion criteria, one was randomly selected for the analysis. The baseline parameters were compared with those at the end of 6 years. RESULTS: A total of 46 eyes (65%) were controlled medically throughout the 6-year follow-up period, while 24 eyes (35%) required surgery. The mean IOP was 25.4 +/- 4.9 mmHg at baseline and 15.6 +/- 4.6 mmHg at 6 years follow-up (p < 0.001). Stereoscopic evaluation of the cup : disc ratio did not show a significant change from a mean of 0.6 +/- 0.18 at baseline to a mean of 0.64 +/- 0.2 at 6 years (p = 0.12). Progression of visual field defects was seen in seven eyes (10%), which had statistically larger cup : disc ratios (p = 0.04) and more extensive visual field deficits at the initial assessment (p = 0.04), and which also maintained higher levels of IOP (p = 0.03) over the 6 years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Stable visual fields and good longterm IOP control were seen in 90% of chronic primary angle closure glaucoma eyes on medical/surgical therapy over 6 years. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Ibopamine is a non-selective dopamine- and adrenalin-receptor agonist that has been shown to cause pupillary dilation and an increase in aqueous humour secretion. This novel drug can be used as a mydriatic agent, as a provocative test in open-angle glaucoma, and for the treatment of persisting ocular hypotony. HISTORY AND SIGNS: This 47-year-old man had a history of uveitis associated with Crohn's disease. Six years after deep sclerectomy for uveitic secondary glaucoma, he developed severe hypotony in his left eye with drop of visual acuity (VA). The hypotony did not respond to topical steroid treatment. 2 % Ibopamine solution was ordered t. i. d. concomitant to 1 % prednisolone acetate. THERAPY AND OUTCOME: Intraocular pressure (IOP) began to rise after 3 weeks of Ibopamine treatment and returned to normal (12 mmHg) with continuous recovery of VA after 8 weeks. Ibopamine was discontinued at an IOP of 16 mmHg after a course of 12 weeks. IOP and VA remained stable during the 12-month follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: Ibopamine 2 % eye drops in combination with topical steroids are a therapeutic option in uveitis-associated ocular hypotony. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the beneficial effects of intraoperative application of mitomycin-C during trabeculectomy in a black African population in Congo-Kinshasa. METHODS: A prospective randomized study in 22 eyes (11 patients) with open-angle glaucoma. All patients underwent trabeculectomy with application of mitomycin-C (0.4 mg/ml for 2.5 min) under the scleral flap in the right eye and trabeculectomy alone in the left eye. Assessment of the clinical outcome included intraocular pressure, visual acuity, visual field and complications. The follow-up was 20 months. Success of the filtering surgery was defined as a final IOP of 21 mmHg or lower without antiglaucoma medications and no further glaucoma surgery necessary. RESULTS: The success rate of trabeculectomy was 81.8% in eyes treated with mitomycin-C compared with 63.6% in eyes not receiving this drug. Rates of intraocular pressure reduction were 57.9% and 42.9% respectively. Complications occured in 36.3% of the eyes managed with mitomycin-C against 9% in the control eyes. CONCLUSIONS: Mitomycin-C, as adjunctive treatment during trabeculectomy in black Africans, offers great benefit in lowering IOP, but with a substantial high risk of complications. These data need to be confirmed by further studies in this population. 相似文献

Congenital iris ectropion is an uncommon malformation of the anterior segment of the eye. The authors describe a case of bilateral congenital iris ectropion associated with juvenile glaucoma in an otherwise healthy 9-year-old girl. Intra-ocular pressure (IOP) measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry was 40 mmHg in the right eye and 32 mmHg in the left eye. Despite maximum IOP lowering therapy, the desired IOP levels needed to prevent further progression of the glaucoma could not be achieved. Visual field testing and confocal scanning laser tomography showed glaucomatous neuropathy. Trabeculectomy with antimetabolites (mitomycin C 0.2 mg/ml) was performed in both eyes and IOP was normalized without IOP lowering medications during a follow-up of 4 years. The authors point out the importance of recognizing congenital iris ectropion early to prevent blindness in young patients and improve their prognosis. 相似文献
