Abstract

Of 92 enucleated eyes with scleral inflammation and 114 eyes from 81 patients with scleritis, 45 (49%) and 20 (18%), respectively, showed evidence of increased intraocular pressure. Damage to the trabecular meshwork of iridocyclitis, overlying corneoscleral inflammation, or peripheral anterior synechiae was the most common cause of increased intraocular pressure. Other causes included topical corticosteroid use, angle neovascularization, and posterior scleritis with secondary angle closure.

摘要

在92只患有巩膜炎症的摘除眼球以及81例巩膜炎患者的114只眼中，分别有45只（49%）和20只（18%）出现眼压升高的迹象。虹膜睫状体炎的小梁网损伤、覆盖的角膜巩膜炎症或周边前粘连是眼压升高最常见的原因。其他原因包括局部使用皮质类固醇、房角新生血管形成以及继发房角关闭的后巩膜炎。
