Topical anti-glaucomatous medications are still the most important measure to lower intraocular pressure. Large number of studies have confirmed that long-term use of anti-glaucomatous eye drops, especially containing benzalkonium chloride, a preservative, can cause or aggravate ocular surface injury. Ocular surface diseases damage the ocular microenvironmental health status, reduce the patients' compliance with the treatment, and finally affect the treatment result. Therefore, the ocular surface management of patients with glaucoma is very important. This includes the selection of drugs that are better tolerated according to individual conditions, preservative-free formulations, drugs that protect against ocular surface disease, or selecting surgery and laser treatment, to prevent the damage to the ocular surface by topical anti-glaucomatous drugs.
局部抗青光眼药物仍然是降低眼压的最重要措施。大量研究证实,长期使用抗青光眼滴眼液,尤其是含有防腐剂苯扎氯铵的滴眼液,可导致或加重眼表损伤。眼表疾病损害眼部微环境健康状况,降低患者治疗依从性,最终影响治疗效果。因此,青光眼患者的眼表管理非常重要。这包括根据个体情况选择耐受性更好的药物、无防腐剂制剂、预防眼表疾病的药物,或选择手术和激光治疗,以防止局部抗青光眼药物对眼表的损害。
