概括
患有春季角膜结膜炎 (VKC) 的儿童显示角膜表皮较薄,特别是在上方象限. 前段光学连贯断层扫描 (OCT) 对于监测这些与VKC相关的角膜变化至关重要.
科学领域:
- 眼科医生 眼科 眼科
- 角质科学 角质科学
- 儿科眼部疾病 儿科眼部疾病
背景情况:
- 春季角膜结膜炎 (VKC) 是一种双边,发,季节性眼睛炎症.
- 在VKC中角膜的参与可以导致显著的视力损伤.
- 需要使用非侵入性成像技术来评估儿科VKC的角膜变化.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较患有VKC和健康对照儿童之间的角膜上皮的参数.
- 评估前段光学连贯性断层扫描 (OCT) 在评估与VKC相关的角膜变化的实用性.
主要方法:
- 前段OCT用于测量中部5毫米角膜的上皮质厚度.
- 这项研究包括了108只VKC患者的眼睛和108只健康对照的眼睛 (5-18岁).
- 对角膜上皮质厚度参数进行了分析,并在各组之间进行了比较.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,患有VKC的儿童表现出明显较薄的上角膜上皮质 (38.69 ± 5.91 μm vs 40.98 ± 3.86 μm).
- 在VKC患者中,表皮体最小厚度降低,MIN-MAX值更高.
- 混合的VKC病例显示上层上皮质稀薄和最小上皮质厚度降低.
结论:
- 患有VKC的儿童有显著的角膜上皮质厚度变化,特别是上部和最小厚度显著减少.
- 长时间的VKC持续时间与上皮质稀薄的增加相关.
- 前段OCT是跟踪儿科VKC角膜变化的一个有价值的工具.

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
1.1K
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment
1.7K
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...
