We investigated the relationship between the circumferential extent of peripheral anterior synechiae (PAS) and the severity of visual field defects in primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). Correlations between visual field defects and the extent of PAS were analyzed in 73 eyes; 28 with and 45 without acute attacks. Spearman's correlation coefficient between the severity of visual field defects and the extent of PAS was 0.348 (P = 0.003) in all subjects (n = 73), 0.377 (P = 0.012) in the PACG eyes without acute attacks (n = 45), and 0.338 (P = 0.079) in the eyes with acute attacks (n = 28). Our results showed a statistically significant correlation between the extent of PAS and the severity of visual field damage in PACG overall, and especially in PACG patients without a history of acute attacks.
我们研究了原发性闭角型青光眼(PACG)中周边前粘连(PAS)的圆周范围与视野缺损严重程度之间的关系。分析了73只眼中视野缺损与PAS范围之间的相关性;其中28只眼有急性发作史,45只眼无急性发作史。在所有受试者(n = 73)中,视野缺损严重程度与PAS范围之间的Spearman相关系数为0.348(P = 0.003),在无急性发作史的PACG眼(n = 45)中为0.377(P = 0.012),在有急性发作史的眼(n = 28)中为0.338(P = 0.079)。我们的结果表明,总体上PACG中PAS范围与视野损害严重程度之间存在统计学上的显著相关性,尤其是在无急性发作史的PACG患者中。
