Predicting the Effect of Laser Peripheral Iridotomy

July 28, 2020 updated by: Mingkai Lin, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University

Prediction of the Degree of Angle Opening Distance in Patients With Primary Angle Closure Suspect After Laser Peripheral Iridotomy

This study will compare the angle parameters of patients with PACS before and after LPI. The investigators will analyze the results of patients with different angle closure mechanisms before and after LPI, and participants hope to find the structural parameters for predicting the effect of LPI.

Detailed Description

Primary angle-closure glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. It is associated with increased intraocular pressure, which causes optic nerve damage and field defects if untreated. The aqueous humor leaves the anterior chamber through the trabecular meshwork and flows into the aqueous vein and the superior scleral vein through the collector channels and Schlemm's canal. If the trabecular meshwork is not blocked, a wide angle allows enough aqueous humor to drain out. The iris corneal translocation may lead to angle-closure glaucoma.

Laser peripheral iridectomy is recognized as the best surgical method to relieve pupil block. Previous studies have shown increased anterior chamber depth (ACD), area (ACA), and volume (ACV), and increased Angle open distance (AOD) after LPI surgery.

However, postoperative outcomes of LPI were not the same for patients with different angle closure mechanisms.

Postoperative outcomes for LPI were best for patients with pupillary block type, but were moderate for patients with plateau iris group and mixed group.

The purpose of this study, conducted in Chinese subjects, aims to use UBM to evaluate changes in the anterior segment parameters of LPI, and to propose methods to predict postoperative outcomes of LPI.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the changes in anterior opening distance before and after LPI
Time Frame: between the baseline and 1 hour before discharge
To compare the difference of anterior opening distance after LPI and baseline parameters before LPI. Anterior opening distance, measured on a line perpendicular to the plane of the trabecular surface 500 μm anterior to the scleral spur and extended to meet the surface of the iris
between the baseline and 1 hour before discharge
