Gonioscopy was performed on 110 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma over the age of 40 and an equal number of normal subjects matched by race and age. The frequency distribution of various angle features differed in two groups. In the glaucoma group there were more iris processes at all levels of insertion, a higher insertion of the iris root, and more trabecular pigmentation. We believe that a congenital angle anomaly is an important factor in the pathogenesis of the elevated intraocular pressure.
对110例40岁以上的原发性开角型青光眼患者以及同等数量、年龄和种族匹配的正常受试者进行了前房角镜检查。两组各种房角特征的频率分布有所不同。在青光眼组中,虹膜在各个附着水平的突起更多,虹膜根部附着更高,小梁色素沉着更多。我们认为先天性房角异常是眼压升高发病机制中的一个重要因素。
