| Summary: |
Purpose:
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) often coexists with
glaucomatous optic nerve head damage. Confocal scanning
laser tomography Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) is
the most competent and accurate technique of monitoring
of glaucomatous optic nerve head damage.
Our aim was to determine correlation between stage of
PEX and glaucomatous optic nerve head damage, by using
HRT system.
Material and methods: Two groups of patients
underwent examination. The examined PEX-group with 35
eyes with III stage and 35 eyes with IV stage of PEX.
The control group (POAG patients) of 44 eyes.
Stereometric parameters Disc Area, Cup Area, Cup/Disc
Area Ratio, Rim Area, Height Variation Contour, Cup
Volume, Rim Volume, Mean Cup Depth, Max Cup Depth, Cup
Shape Measure, Mean RNFL Thickness, RNFL Cross Section
Area were obtained by HRT.
Results: No statistcal differences were noted
between III and IV stage of PEX for DA, HVC, RV, Mean
RNFL Thickness and RNFL Cross Section Area parameters.
Between III stage of PEX and control group no
statistical differences were confirmed for HVC. Between
IV stage of PEX and control group no statistical
differences have respect to: CSM, Mean RNFL Thickness
and RNFL Cross Section Area stereometric parameters.
Conclusions: IV stage of PEX syndrome is the
serious risk for glaucomatous neuropathy and requires
precise monitoring. |
