To evaluate the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) on central corneal thickness (CCT), horizontal corneal diameter (HCD), axial length (AL) in patients with primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) after antiglaucoma surgery. In this hospital based interventional study 36 patients (66 eyes) of PCG who underwent antiglaucoma surgery were included in the study. For each patient visual acuity, anterior and posterior segment examination, IOP, AL, CCT, HCD and refraction (in clear media) were recorded pre and post operatively (3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months). B scan ultrasonography was done to measure AL and to rule out posterior segment pathology. Surgery was performed by a glaucoma expert (by a single surgeon). Bilateral involvement was present in 83.33% with the most common symptom being photophobia and watering (30.56% each). The mean IOP, CCT, HCD, VCD and AL before surgery were 26.88+/-2.78 mmHg, 614.38+/-89.41 µ, 14.41+/-1.26mm, 13.19+/-1.46mm and 24.78+/-2.21mm and at 6 months were 13.85+/-1.93 mmHg, 548.56+/-63.13 µ, 14.62+/-0.49 mm, 13.34+/-1.10 mm and 25.73+/-1.36mm respectively. 59.1% of the patients had corneal clearing at 6 months. Control of IOP affects various parameters of eye like CCT, HCD and AL. Early surgery is the definitive line of management for controlling IOP in PCG patients.

AbstractTo evaluate intraocular pressure (IOP) and choroidal thickness (ChT) postural changes in multiple system atrophy (MSA), Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients and healthy controls (HC). 20 MSA patients, 21 PD patients and 14 HC, were examined. All subjects underwent a complete examination, including corneal thickness, ChT, IOP and axial length (AL) measurements. IOP measurement was performed in supine, sitting, and standing positions, whereas ChT in sitting and standing positions. Supine to standing IOP variations were significantly higher in MSA vs PD(p = 0.01) and in MSA vs HC (p < 0.0001), whereas no significant differences were observed between PD and HC (p = 0.397). Mean sub-foveal ChT in MSA was 240 ± 92 μm in sitting position, and 215 ± 94 μm in standing position with a significant reduction (p = 0.008). Mean sub-foveal ChT in PD was 258 ± 79 μm in sitting position, and 259 ± 76 μm in standing position (p = 0.887). In HC it was 244 ± 36 μm in sitting position, and 256 ± 37 μm in standing position with a significant increase (p = 0.007). The significant IOP and ChT postural changes can be considered additional hallmarks of autonomic dysfunction in MSA and further studies are needed to consider them as biomarkers in the differential diagnosis with PD.

BACKGROUND Myopia is a complex trait including both genetic and environmental factors as well as gene-environment interactions. It has been recognized as a risk factor for development of glaucoma. Both Myopia and raised IOP are known to increase mechanical stress at optic nerve head leading to glaucomatous nerve damage. This study intends to evaluate the clinical profile of myopic subjects and its correlation with Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS A prospective observational study done from November 2019 to December 2020 after taking proper informed consent and ethical clearance. 164 eyes of 96 patients studied were divided into three groups, Group 1: low myopia (< -3.00D), Group 2: moderate myopia (-3.00 D to -5.75 D), Group 3: high myopia (≥ -6.00 D). A complete ocular examination was performed. Intraocular pressure was measured using Goldmann applanation tonometer. Visual field analysis using Humphrey automated perimetry was done in patients with suspected primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Angle parameters and central corneal thickness (CCT) were measured using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). RESULTS 164 eyes of 96 Myopic subjects were studied with no dropout during study period. Mean age was 46.05 yr. (range: 25-75 yr.). The refraction ranged from -0.50 DS to -17.00 DS. There was no statistically significant difference between Intraocular pressure (IOP), Central corneal thickness (CCT), corrected IOP and Nasal and Temporal Trabecular-iris Angle (TIA) between male and female of same age group. Mean IOP and mean CCT were found to vary significantly with age and with higher degree of myopia. Corrected IOP, Nasal and Temporal TIA increase significantly with higher degree of myopia. Cup-disc ratio (CDR) was found to be significantly higher in patients with moderate to high degree of Myopia. CONCLUSIONS Myopia is an important risk factor for development of primary open angle glaucoma, with its incidence increasing in patients with moderate to high myopia.
