摘 要:AIM:To compare the effect of phacoemulsification on intraocular pressure(IOP)in patients with primary open angle glaucoma(POAG)and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma(PXG).METHODS:A retrospective comparative case series conducted at the Glaucoma Department at the Association to Prevent Blindness in *** study enrolled consecutive patients having phacoemulsification with intraocular lens(IOL)implantation and a diagnosis of POAG or *** about IOP values and number of glaucoma medications used was collected at baseline,1,3,6 and12mo ***:The study enrolled 88 patients(88 eyes).After phacoemulsification,there was a statistically significant reduction in IOP values and glaucoma medications use compared to baseline in both POAG and PXG patients(P〈0.001).In the POAG group,a 20%decrease in IOP values was evidenced,and a 56.5%reduction in the number of medications used at the one-year *** PXG group showed a 20.39%,and a 34.46%decrease in IOP and number of medications used,respectively.A significant difference in the meanΔIOP(postoperative changes in IOP)was evidenced between groups(P=0.005).The reduction of the postsurgical IOP mean values in both groups,the POAG group showed a greater reduction in IOP values compared to the PXG ***:In both types of glaucoma,phacoemulsification cataract surgery can result in a significant IOP reduction(20%)over a 12mo follow-up *** number of medications used is also significantly reduced up to 12mo after surgery,especially in the PXG group.
