The study aimed to evaluate the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction on macular and peripapillary microcirculation in patients with Posner-Schlossman syndrome (PSS) by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). A prospective comparative study was conducted. Patients diagnosed with PSS at the Eye Center of Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, from February 2020 to November 2021 were consecutively included. OCTA was used for the macular and peripapillary microcirculation measurements, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) was employed for the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and lamina cribrosa depth (LCD) measurements. The patients received OCT and OCTA examinations at baseline and 1 week post-treatment when the IOP was under control. Changes in macular and peripapillary microcirculation, RNFL, and LCD were calculated for all the analyzed areas. Twenty-one eyes from 21 patients were included in the study. Pre-treatment and post-treatment IOP were 43.17 ± 10.36 mm Hg (range, 30-60 mm Hg) and 17.17 ± 2.85 mm Hg (range, 13-23 mm Hg), respectively. No statistically significant changes were detected in RNFL, LCD, or macular and peripapillary microcirculation after significant IOP reduction. The results suggested that a large IOP reduction may not result in a significant increase in peripapillary and macular capillary perfusion in patients with PSS.
本研究旨在通过光学相干断层扫描血管造影(OCTA)评估降低眼压(IOP)对波斯纳-施洛斯曼综合征(PSS)患者黄斑和视乳头周围微循环的影响。进行了一项前瞻性对照研究。连续纳入2020年2月至2021年11月在中南大学湘雅医院眼科中心被诊断为PSS的患者。使用OCTA测量黄斑和视乳头周围的微循环,使用光学相干断层扫描(OCT)测量视网膜神经纤维层(RNFL)和筛板深度(LCD)。患者在基线时以及眼压得到控制后的治疗后1周接受OCT和OCTA检查。计算所有分析区域黄斑和视乳头周围微循环、RNFL和LCD的变化。本研究纳入了21例患者的21只眼。治疗前和治疗后的眼压分别为43.17±10.36 mmHg(范围30 - 60 mmHg)和17.17±2.85 mmHg(范围13 - 23 mmHg)。眼压显著降低后,RNFL、LCD或黄斑和视乳头周围微循环未检测到统计学上的显著变化。结果表明,大幅降低眼压可能不会导致PSS患者视乳头周围和黄斑毛细血管灌注显著增加。
