Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to analysis changes in anterior segment morphology after laser peripheral lrldotomy measured by optical coherence tomography, and to evaluate treatment effectiveness
Detailed description
In the study ,primary angle closure(PAC) and primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) will be recruited. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography images captured before and after laser peripheral iridotomy will be analysed to provide objective and reproducible quantification of anterior segment biometric parameters.The outcomes can provide useful information for clinical strategies in the treatment and management of pathology related to angle closure.
Interventions
All the patients will be achieved with pilocarpine 1% for pupil constriction, laser peripheral iridotomy(LPI) is performed using the ophthalmic neodymium: yttrium aluminium garnet laser (Laserex Tango Nd:YAG, Ellex-SuperQ Medical, Australia) and an VOLK iridotomy contact lens. After LPI, patients will be given topical prednisolone acetate 0.1% for 7 days.
