Cyclophotoablation for glaucoma treatment is dependent on the amount of laser energy absorbed by the ciliary body and related to the degree of its pigmentation. Iris color may be assessed by observing the eye, but it is unknown whether it correlates with ciliary body pigmentation.
We evaluated whether ciliary pigmentation correlates with iris color.
The pigmented epithelium of the ciliary processes of 31 enucleated eyes was qualitatively scored for six histological parameters and correlated with iris color.
The dark iris group (n = 19) had significantly increased histological parameters of pigmentation such as aggregation of melanosomes, compared to the light iris group (n = 12) (p < 0.01).
Iris color correlates with ciliary pigmentation and may serve as one of the factors determining laser power needed for cyclophotoablation.
青光眼治疗中的睫状体光凝术取决于睫状体吸收的激光能量,且与睫状体色素沉着程度相关。虹膜颜色可通过观察眼睛来评估,但尚不清楚其是否与睫状体色素沉着相关。
我们评估了睫状体色素沉着是否与虹膜颜色相关。
对31只摘除眼球的睫状突色素上皮进行六个组织学参数的定性评分,并与虹膜颜色进行关联。
与浅虹膜组(n = 12)相比,深虹膜组(n = 19)色素沉着的组织学参数如黑素体聚集显著增加(p < 0.01)。
虹膜颜色与睫状体色素沉着相关,可作为决定睫状体光凝术所需激光功率的因素之一。
