Iridoschisis misdiagnosed as acute angle-closure glaucoma:a case report and literature review

We present the case of a patient with iridoschisis complicated with cataract,peripheral anterior synechiae(PAS),secondary glaucoma,and corneal endothelial damage.The patient was initially misdiagnosed with acute angle-closure glaucoma.Iridoschisis is a rare condition characterized by the splitting of the iris into two layers:the anterior layer breaks down into fibers,floating freely in the anterior chamber with a“shredded wheat”appearance.

Acute primary angle closure during the Omicron outbreak

AIM:To investigate Omicron’s impact on clinical presentation of acute primary angle closure(APAC)in China.METHODS:A consecutive case series with historical controls was conducted at Shenzhen Eye Hospital,the largest specialized hospital in Shenzhen,China.Medical records from a two-month period during the Omicron pandemic(December 1,2022,to January 31,2023)were compared with records from two control groups(12/2018–1/2019 and 12/2021–1/2022)before pandemic.Patients with APAC were included,and the prevalence of APAC and demographic characteristics in Omicron-infected and noninfected patients were compared.RESULTS:Seventy-one(23.43%)out of 303 patients were diagnosed with APAC in the pandemic cohort,which was 2.98 and 2.61 times higher than that in control cohorts(7.87%in 2019,8.96%in 2022,P<0.001).The pandemic cohort has significantly higher Omicron-infected rate(78.87%vs 0 vs 0;P<0.001),lower proportion of glaucoma history(16.90%vs 42.86%vs 41.67%,P=0.005),higher surgical rate(95.77%vs 83.33%vs 78.57%,P=0.024),higher total medical costs and larger pupil diameter(5.63±0.15 vs 4.68±0.15 vs 4.69±0.22 mm,P<0.01).In 83%Omicron-infected patients,ocular symptoms appeared within 3d after systemic symptoms onset.In multivariate analysis,Omicron infection(P<0.001)was the only independent predictor of pupil diameter.CONCLUSION:In the Omicron epidemic in China,there is an increase of prevalence and severity of APAC,particularly focusing on the first 3d following infection.

Combined treatment of phacoemulsification and single-port limited pars plana vitrectomy in acute angle-closure glaucoma

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of combined treatment of phacoemulsification(PE) and micro-incisional single-port transconjunctival limited pars plana vitrectomy(PPV) in acute angle-closure glaucoma(AACG).METHODS: A retrospective study included 26 patients who underwent PE diagnosed with AACG. Among them, 16 patients(16 eyes) underwent PE alone, 10 patients(10 eyes) underwent combined limited vitrectomy and PE. Then we compared intraocular pressure(IOP), anterior chamber angle, anterior chamber depth, central corneal thickness and corneal endothelial cell count before and after surgery, and effective PE time during cataract surgery.RESULTS: Effective PE time was shorter in the combined surgery group than in the single surgery group(P=0.040). There was no statistically significant difference in IOP and best-corrected visual acuity between the two groups postoperatively. At 6 mo postoperatively, there was no difference in the anterior chamber angle, anterior chamber depth, and central corneal thickness between two groups, but corneal endothelial cell count was higher in the combined surgery group than in the single surgery group(P=0.046). No complication such as vitreoretinal disease, endophthalmitis, bullous keratopathy was noted.CONCLUSION: Combined micro-incisional single-port transconjunctival limited PPV and PE are more effective and safer than PE alone because of less operation time and fewer complications for management of AACG.

Bilateral acute angle closure glaucoma precipitated by over the counter oral decongestant

Dear Sir,We hereby report a case of bilateral acute angle closure glaucoma secondary to a systemic decongestant containing pseudoephedrine freely available over the counter.Acute angle closure glaucoma is an ocular emergency.Delayed recognition and treatment inevitably leads to permanent visual impairment.Acute angle closure occurs as a result of obstruction to aqueous drainage by blockage of the trabecular meshwork by the iris.Typical presenting symptoms include acute onset of ocular pain,headache and blurred vision.On clinical examination,it is characterized by a markedly raised IOP of above 21 mm Hg together with

A Meta-Analysis: Safety and Efficacy of Phacoemulsification with Goniosynechialysis versus Trabeculectomy for Acute Angle Closure Glaucoma in China

Aim: The aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of phacoemulsification with goniosynechialysis versus trabeculectomy in the treatment of acute angle closure glaucoma (AACG) systematically. Methods: From January 1, 2000 to August 31, 2022, we searched PubMed, Science Citation Index Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Database for pertinent material about the treatment of AACG with various operations. The imported literature was carefully vetted using the inclusion and exclusion criteria, assessed for quality, and the raw data were retrieved and integrated into EndNoteX9. For the meta-analysis, STATA 16.0 and RevMan 5.3 were used as the tools. Results: The meta-analysis includes 20 clinical investigations in all, involving 1463 eyes. The quality of the literature was rated as excellent and the data homogeneity among the studies was excellent based on the various study types that were included in the literature. According to a meta-analysis, phacoemulsification with goniosynechialysis is superior to trabeculectomy for treating acute angle-closure glaucoma because it results in improved postoperative visual acuity, lower intraocular pressure, a broader anterior chamber depth, and fewer complications. Conclusion: If conditions allow, phacoemulsification in conjunction with goniosynechialysis performs better than trabeculectomy in terms of visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, and comorbidities.

Angle parameter changes of phacoemulsification and combined phacotrabeculectomy for acute primary angle closure

·AIM: To evaluate the difference in angle parameters and clinical outcome following phacoemulsification and combined phacotrabeculectomy in patients with acute primary angle closure(APAC) using ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM).·METHODS: Patients(n =23, 31 eyes) were randomized to receive phacoemulsification or combined phacotrabeculectomy(n =24, 31 eyes). Best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure(IOP), the main complications following surgery, and indentation gonioscopy and angle parameters measured using UBM were documented preoperatively and postoperatively.· RESULTS: The improvement in BCVA in the phacoemulsification group was significantly greater than in the combined group(P 【0.05). IOP in the phacoemulsification group was slightly higher than in the combined group following 1wk of follow-up(P 【0.05),whereas there was no significant difference between the two groups at the latter follow-up(P 】0.05).Phacoemulsification alone resulted in a slight increase in the trabecular ciliary processes distance compared with the combined surgery(P 【0.05), whereas the other angle parameters showed no significant difference between the groups. Complications in combined group were greater than phacoemulsification only group.·CONCLUSION: Both surgeries effectively opened the drainage angle and deepened the anterior chamber, and IOP was well controlled postoperatively. However,phacoemulsification showed better efficacy in improving visual function and showed reduced complications following surgery.

Phacoemulsification,Intraocular Lens Implantation,Goniosynechialysis,and Pseudo-Pupilloplasty for Refractory Acute Primary Angle Closure with Atonic Dilated Pupil

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of prompt phacoemulsification,intraocular lens implantation,visco-goniosynechialysis,combined with pseudo-pupilloplasty for refractory acute primary angle closure(APAC)with atonic dilated pupil and to describe a feasible method of pupilloplasty.Methods A consecutive series of refractory APAC patients who had atonic dilated pupil and undergone prompt phacoemulsification combined with pseudo-pupilloplasty at our center were retrospectively analyzed.Pseudo-pupilloplasty referred to a method of pupilloplasty which included 4.5-mm capsulorhexis,postoperative opacification of anterior capsule residue,and ultimate pseudo-pupil formation.Preoperative and postoperative measurements included intraocular pressure(IOP),best corrected visual acuity(BCVA),and anterior chamber depth(ACD).Intraoperative and postoperative complications were documented.The process of pseudo-pupil formation was also observed.Results A total of 20 eyes of 19 APAC patients were followed up for 19.7±9.8 months.IOP was lowered from preoperative 44.0±9.8 mmHg to 15.5±2.6 mmHg at final visit(t=11.945,P<0.001).ACD was deepened from preoperative 1.77±0.21 mm to 3.40±0.20 mm at final visit(t=-27.711,P<0.001).Twelve of 20 eyes had residual angle synechiae,whereas only 3 eyes needed anti-glaucoma medications.No severe complication was observed.All eyes had pseudo-pupil gradually formed within 3 months,accompanied with the gradual improvement of BCVA from preoperative 1.18+0.55 to 0.58±0.22,0.26±0.09,0.11±0.09,and 0.11±.09 at postoperative day 1,month 1,month 3,and last visit.Conclusions Prompt phacoemulsification-goniosynechialysis is effective and safe for refractory APAC with atonic dilated pupil.Pseudo-pupilloplasty is a feasible procedure for pupil reconstruction.

Aqueous proinflammatory cytokines in acute primary angle-closure eyes

AIM：To evaluate changes of proinflammatory cytokines in aqueous humor of patients with acute primary angleclosure（APAC） and age-related cataracts. METHODS：Twenty eyes of 20 APAC patients and 15 eyes of 15 age-related cataract patients were included in this cross-sectional study. Aqueous humor samples were collected prospectively. The levels of 20 proinflammatory cytokines were evaluated in the aqueous humor of the APAC and cataract patients using the multiplex bead immunoassay technique. Clinical data were collected for correlation analysis.RESULTS：Seven of the 20 proinflammatory cytokines included in the magnetic bead panel were detectable in both APAC eyes and cataract eyes：interleukin（IL）-10, IL-12, IL-15, IL-21, IL-6, chemokine（C-C motif） ligand 20, and tumor necrosis factor alpha（TNF-α）. IL-27 was only detectable in APAC eyes. Compared with the cataract eyes, the APAC eyes had significantly elevated concentrations of IL-12（P=0.036）, IL-15（P=0.001）, IL-6（P=0.012）, and IL-27（only detectable in APAC eyes）. Age was positively correlated with IL-12（P=0.022） and IL-6（P=0.037）, and time elapsed between APAC onset and aqueous humor samples collection was positively correlated with IL-15（P=0.037）, IL-27（P=0.040）, and TNF-α（P=0.042）.CONCLUSION：Several proinflammatory cytokines including IL-12,IL-15, IL-6 and IL-27, were elevated in the APAC eyes and may be implicated in its pathologic mechanism.

Uveal effusion following acute primary angle-closure:a retrospective case series

AIM：To evaluate the morphological changes in anterior segment in Chinese patients with uveal effusion（UE）after the attack of acute primary angle-closure（APAC）using ultrasound biomicroscopy（UBM）,and to assess the clinical course and prognosis of the disease.METHODS：In a retrospective case series,26 eyes in 26 consecutive patients diagnosed with UE after the treatment of intraocular pressure（IOP）-lowering medication for the attack of APAC were enrolled. The unaffected fellow eyes served as controls. The morphological changes were observed by ultrasonography,slit lamp microscopy and gonioscopy. UBM was used to assess the degree and extent of effusion based on the analysis of parameters associated with UE.RESULTS：The mean IOP was 9.2（SD 2.1）mm Hg at the diagnosis of UE after IOP-lowering medication,while 14.1（SD,2.6）mm Hg in the fellow eyes（P=0.000）. The anterior chamber depth（ACD）（P=0.000）,angle opening distance at 500 μm（AOD500）（P〈0.01）and anterior chamber angle（ACA）（P〈0.05）were decreased significantly,while ciliary body thickness（CBT）（P〈0.05）increased significantly in UE eyes. UE grade analysis showed 7 eyes in grade 1,9 eyes in grade 2,and 10 eyes in grade 3. Quadrant scores were performed of 4 eyes in 1 quadrant,3 eyes in 3 quadrants,and 19 eyes in 4 quadrants. There was the positive correlation between grade and quadrant score（R=0.644,P=0.000）. The effusion on all eyes were recovered after medication,which mean IOP was 13.9（SD,2.8）mm Hg.CONCLUSION：UE is a frequent complication in Chinese patients after the attack of APAC,partially associated with hypotony. The severity of UE is correlation with height of effusion,extent of detachment,and shallower ACD.

Bilateral posterior scleritis presenting as acute primary angle closure:A case report

BACKGROUND Scleritis is a rare disease and the incidence of bilateral posterior scleritis is even rarer.Unfortunately,misdiagnosis of the latter is common due to its insidious onset,atypical symptoms,and varied manifestations.We report here a case of bilateral posterior scleritis that presented with acute eye pain and intraocular hypertension,and was initially misdiagnosed as acute primary angle closure.Expanding the literature on such cases will not only increase physicians’awareness but also help to improve accurate diagnosis.CASE SUMMARY A 53-year-old man was referred to our hospital to address a 4-d history of bilateral acute eye pain,headache,and loss of vision,after initial presentation to a local hospital 3 d prior.Our initial examination revealed bilateral cornea edema accompanied by a shallow anterior chamber and visual acuity reduction,with left-eye amblyopia(>30 years).There was bilateral hypertension(by intraocular pressure:28 mmHg in right,34 mmHg in left)and normal fundi.Accordingly,acute primary angle closure was diagnosed.Miotics and ocular hypotensive drugs were prescribed,but the symptoms continued to worsen over the 3-d treatment course.Further imaging examinations(i.e.,anterior segment photography and ultrasonography)indicated a diagnosis of bilateral posterior scleritis.Methylprednisolone,topical atropine,and steroid eye drops were prescribed along with intraocular pressure-lowering agents.Subsequent optical coherence tomography(OCT)showed gradual improvements in subretinal fluid under the sensory retina,thickened sclera,and ciliary body detachment.CONCLUSION Bilateral posterior scleritis can lead to secondary acute angle closure.Diagnosis requires ophthalmic accessory examinations(i.e.,ultrasound biomicroscopy,Bscan,and OCT).

Safety and Efficacy of Combined Trabeculectomy for Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma with Persistent Ocular Hypertension

Purpose:To investigate the safety and efficacy of combined trabeculectomy for primary acute angle closure glaucoma with persistent ocular hypertension.Methods:A total of 36 patients.(40 eyes).with primary acute angle closure glaucoma,who were treated with combined trabeculectomy in the Ophthalmology Unit of our hospital,were selected.Before the procedure,patients were assigned to ocular hypertension group(≥ 40 mm Hg) or control group(< 40 mm Hg) based on intraocular pressure.These two groups were followed up for one year,and compared for post-operative visual acuity,intraocular pressure,filtering bleb,anterior chamber depth,and the occurrence of complications.Results:At 1 week,6 months,and 12 months after the procedure,intraocular pressure was controlled in both the ocular hypertension group and the control group,without significant differences between the two groups(P>0.05).At 1 week,6 months,and 12 months after the procedure,all of the patients,in both groups,had improved in terms of visual acuity,with a significant difference before and after the procedure for the ocular hypertension group(P<0.05).After follow-up at 12 months,the two groups presented no statistically significant differences in anterior chamber depth,filtering bleb survival,or the incidence of post-operative complications(P>0.05 for all).Conclusion:It is feasible,safe,and effective to perform combined trabeculectomy on patients with primary acute angle closure glaucoma complicated by persistent ocular hypertension.

Anterior Segment Parameters Associated to Acute Glaucoma with Slit Lamp Optical Coherence Tomography

Purpose: To identify the anterior segment parameters associated to acute primary angle closure. Patients and Methods: Case-control study in 58 primary angle closure suspect eyes (PACS, control group) and in 19 acute primary angle closure fellow eyes, case group. All subjects underwent SL OCT imaging in a dark room. Results: The SS, ACD and ACV measures were significantly smaller in case group than in control group (p = 0.011;p < 0.001;p = 0.007 respectively);while the IT was significantly greater (at 500 and 750 μm) (p = 0.038 and p = 0.050). The difference between quadrants were statistically significant only for control group (p = 0.001;p = 0.003;p = 0.009;p = 0.018;p = 0.002 and p 500, AOD500, AOD750, TISA500, and TISA750 respectively. Conclusion: Acute primary angle closure is associated to the smaller anterior segment dimensions and the thicker iris compared to PACS.

Intraocular pressure modifications in patients with acute central/hemicentral retinal vein occlusions

Intraocular pressure(IOP)modifications in patients with acute central/hemicentral retinal vein occlusions(RVOs)consist in IOP reductions and increases.The IOP reduction is due to a transitional hyposecretory phase of the aqueous humor,that increases gradually until 3 mo after the venous occlusion onset,and then finally disappears after month 4 th.The IOP increases lead to the ocular hypertension and glaucoma.The possible pathogenetic correlations between ocular hypertension/glaucoma and acute central/hemicentral RVOs have been classified into three groups:1)the venous occlusion precedes the ocular hypertension/glaucoma causing neovascular glaucoma and secondary angle-closure glaucoma without rubeosis;2)the ocular hypertension and the glaucoma precede the venous occlusion and favor its appearance(ocular hypertension,primary angle-closure,primary angle-closure glaucoma,and open angle glaucomas);and 3)the venous occlusion and the ocular hypertension/glaucoma are mostly age dependent appearances due to common vascular and collagen alterations,lacking a causal connection between the 2 conditions.

Bilateral simultaneous primary acute angle-closure glaucoma

Dear Editor,Acute primary angle-closure glaucoma(PACG)is an important cause of blindness in East Asia.1 It is estimated that the overall prevalence of PACG will increase from 1.44%to 2.01%from 2020 to 2050.2 Acute PACG is typically related to increased high intraocular pressure(IOP),with symptoms including red eye,blurred vision,nausea,vomiting,and headache.Delay in timely IOPlowering treatment can result in permanent optic nerve damage and vision loss.

Efficacy of laser peripheral iridoplasty and iridotomy on medically refractory patients with acute primary angle closure： a three year outcome

Background Argon laser peripheral iridoplasty （ALPI） is proved to be effective in lowering intraocular pressure （lOP） of patients with mild acute primary angle closure （APAC）. It is unclear whether this laser treatment is equally efficient in managing patients with severe APAC. This study aimed peripheral iridotomy （LPI） on patients with refractory APAC, therapy. to evaluate the IOP-lowering efficacy of ALPI and laser who have previously responded poorly to intensive medical Methods Thirty-six patients （8 men and 28 women） were identified as medically refractory APAC, who still had ocular pain, red eye, hazy cornea, closed anterior chamber （AC） angle, and lOP of not less than 21 mmHg after two days or more of anti-glaucoma medication. All enrolled patients underwent ophthalmologic examinations including measurement of visual acuity （VA）, best corrected VA （BCVA）, lOP, biomicroscopy, and gonioscopy followed by ALPI immediately in the APAC eye and LPI in both eyes. Results All patients were affected unilaterally, with average age of （54.6±11.7） （range, 37.0-75.0） years old. The mean lOP value of the affected eyes dropped from （31.6±7.7） （range, 21.0-39.0） mmHg at enrollment to （18.4±8.7） （range, 10.0-27.0） mmHg 2 hours after ALPI. At follow-up day 7, the mean lOP value maintained at （14.8±4.2） （range, 9.0-21.0） mmHg, which was significantly different （P=0.000） compared with baseline. The average decrease of lOP in the APAC eyes was （16.8±7.4） （range, 12.0-21.0） mmHg. At follow-up three years later, the mean lOP of the APAC eyes stabilized at （16.3±3.2） （range, 9.0-20.0） mmHg with at least 180° of AC angle opened. Conclusion ALPI and LPI lower the lOP of medically refractory cases of APAC though they have responded poorly to anti-glaucoma medication.
