Short Term Effect

Purpose. To evaluate the short-term effect of standard automated perimetry (SAP) testing on intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG). Methods. We tested 45 patients (71 eyes) with OAG that had stable IOP under medical treatment. IOP was measured four times using an iCare rebound tonometer (RBT) immediately before, immediately after, 10 minutes after, and 20 minutes after SAP testing. Logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the relationships among SAP test duration, mean deviation of the SAP result, type of glaucoma medications, patient age, and significant IOP change (exceeding 2 mmHg) from baseline IOP. Results. The mean baseline IOP was 13.29 ± 3.06 mmHg. Although IOP changes immediately and 20 minutes after SAP testing were not statistically significant, the IOP change 10 minutes after SAP testing (−0.57 ± 1.84 mmHg) was statistically significant. However, the changes were within the margin of error of the RBT. Test duration, mean deviation, patient age, and type of glaucoma medications did not have a significant influence on IOP change (all ). Conclusions. IOP measured by RBT did not vary significantly after SAP testing in patients with OAG. It may be not necessary to reject IOP measured after SAP testing in patients with OAG.

The Impact

Purpose. To compare the impact of visual field (VF) testing on intraocular pressure (IOP) change trends between healthy subjects and glaucoma patients. Methods. We recruited healthy volunteer subjects who did not have previous ocular diseases and open-angle glaucoma patients who were medically controlled well. IOP in both eyes of each participant was measured by using a noncontact tonometer at five time points: before, immediately after (0 minute), and 10, 30, and 60 minutes after the standard automated perimetry. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze the effect of VF testing on IOP change trends in healthy and glaucoma eyes. Results. Forty healthy subjects (80 eyes) and 31 open-angle glaucoma patients (62 eyes) were included for the study. The baseline IOP of healthy and glaucoma eyes was 16.11 ± 3.01 mmHg and 15.78 ± 3.57 mmHg, respectively. After the VF testing, the IOP in healthy eyes was decreased by 1.5% at 0 minute, 6.5% at 10 minutes (P<0.001), 6.6% at 30 minutes (P<0.001), and 7.0% at 1 hour (P<0.001), indicating that this reduction was sustained for at least 1 hour. However, the IOP in glaucoma eyes was increased by 12.7% at 0 minute (P<0.001) and, then, returned towards initial values 1 hour after the VF testing. Conclusions. IOP change trends after VF field testing between healthy subjects and glaucoma patients were quite different. VF testing led to a mild and relatively sustained IOP decrease in healthy subjects, whereas IOP in open-angle glaucoma patients tended to significantly increase immediately after VF testing and, then, returned to pretest values after 1 hour. These findings indicate that the factors of VF testing should be considered in the clinical IOP measurements.

Abstract Background To evaluate the influence of automated visual field (VF) testing on intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension (OHT) or glaucoma. Methods We conducted a prospective observational study from October 2015 to July 2016 at Quinze-Vingts National Ophthalmology Hospital in Paris. Ninety-five right eyes of 95 patients followed for glaucoma or OHT with reliable standard automated perimetry (SAP) were included. IOP was measured three times using a Nidek NT-510 non-contact tonometer within a maximum of 5 minutes before and after VF testing. Subanalyses using logistic regression analysis were performed to evaluate the impact of gender, age, central corneal thickness (CCT), mean deviation (MD) of the VF, VF test duration and filtration surgery on IOP fluctuations. Results There was no significant change in IOP after VF testing, with IOP’s 15.14 ± 4.00 mmHg before and 14.98 ± 3.33 mmHg after the VF (P = 0.4). The average change in IOP was 0.15 ± 1.82 mmHg. Using multivariate analysis, no effect of the VF test on IOP was found (global model fit R²=0.12), whether based on duration of the VF test (P = 0.18) or the MD (P = 0.7) after adjustment for age, gender, CCT and history of glaucoma surgery. Similarly, there was no significant difference within different types of glaucoma, including open-angle glaucoma (p = 0.36), chronic angle closure glaucoma (P = 0.85) and OHT (P = 0.42). The subgroup of patients with an IOP elevation > 2 mmHg had a significantly higher SAP test duration (P = 0.002). Conclusion VF testing by SAP does not influence IOP as measured with a non-contact tonometer.

Abstract Aim: To assess relationships between functional changes in visual field and structural changes in advanced open-angle glaucoma (OAG) found using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods: Thirty-one eyes of 25 patients with OAG were included in this study. Besides the routine ophthalmological exam the patients underwent standard automated perimetry (SAP) (Humphrey Field Analyzer) and SD-OCT (RTVue–100) performed within 6 months. The global perimetric indices in the study group were as follows: mean deviation (MD) 12.33±6.18 dB and pattern standard deviation (PSD) 9.17±3.41 dB. The relationship between OCT measurements and MD and PSD was evaluated by correlation analysis (Pearson’s correlation coefficient) and regression analysis (linear and nonlinear regression models). Results: Thickness measurements of the lower halves of ganglion cell complex (GCC) and retinal nerve fiber layer by two scanning protocols (ONH and 3.45) showed these to be thinner than the upper halves, but the difference failed to reach statistical significance. The correlations between global indices MD/PSD and most of the analysed quantitative OCT measurements were moderate (r in the range between 0.3 and 0.6). The correlation between MD and GCC showed nonlinear cubic regression (R2=0.417, P=0.004). Good correlation was found between MD and GLV (R2=0.383; P=0.008). Linear regression (P<0.05) was found only between MD and Cup area (R2=0.175, P=0.024) and between MD and RNFL by 3.45 protocol (R2=0.131, P=0.045). Conclusion: Nonlinear regressive models appear to be more appropriate in the assessment of the correlations between functional and structural changes in eyes with advanced glaucoma. The correlations we found were moderate.

Pseudoexfoliative Glaucoma

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of newly diagnosed pseudoexfoliative glaucoma and compare them with those pertaining to newly diagnosed primary open-angle glaucoma as well as pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Methods: This case–control study involved 306 participants, including patients with newly diagnosed pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, age- and sex-matched normal controls, patients with newly diagnosed primary open-angle glaucoma, and subjects with pseudoexfoliation syndrome. The study was conducted at the Glaucoma Department of Clinic for Eye Diseases, Clinical Center of Serbia, as the referral center for glaucoma in Serbia. Results: The mean age in the pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, primary open-angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation syndrome, and normal control groups was 73.61 ± 8.46, 65.50 ± 8.97, 74.81 ± 6.80, and 73.58 ± 9.34 years, respectively (pseudoexfoliative glaucoma vs primary open-angle glaucoma, p < 0.001). Unilateral pseudoexfoliative glaucoma was diagnosed in 35 patients (42.2%). The intraocular pressure was higher in the eyes affected by pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (32.0 ± 9.5 mmHg) than that in the primary open-angle glaucoma eyes (28.8 ± 5.9 mmHg) (p < 0.001). In pseudoexfoliative glaucoma and primary open-angle glaucoma eyes, glaucoma severity was determined via the vertical cup-to-disk ratio (C/D) 0.65 (0.45–1.0) versus 0.60 (0.45–1.0), p = 0.048 and visual field mean deviation −5.68 (−1.58 to −30.9) versus −4.70 (−1.39 to −31.0), p = 0.045. Alzheimer’s was the only systemic disease associated with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma in the study sample, with an odds ratio of 0.021 (95% confidence interval = 0.00−21.52, p = 0.022). Conclusion: At the time of diagnosis, pseudoexfoliative glaucoma exhibits different clinical features compared with primary open-angle glaucoma. Higher intraocular pressure, narrow or occludable angle, increased trabecular pigmentation, phacodonesis, and poorer pupillary dilatation emerged as the factors associated with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma.
