Abstract:
AlM: To observe the postoperative intraocular pressure ( lOP) and operation safety in the eyes of the neovascular glaucoma pateints treated by intraocular cyclophotocoagulation which needed vitrectomy at the same time.
METHODS: A total of 12 neovascular glaucoma cases ( 14 eyes ) secondary to diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment surgery and trauma were reviewed in our study. This procedure mainly used intraocular photocoagulation catheter to highlight the ciliary processes until the ciliary became white atrophy or plosion after vitreous surgery treatment. The intraocular photocoagulation catheter was performed at a power of 300-500mW, for a duration of 0. 1-0. 2ms. Postoperative follow-up was at least for 6mo. The observation of 14 postoperative neovascular glaucoma was performed at 1wk, 1, 6mo observing the lOP and complications.
RESULTS:lOP of the 11 eyes was significantly declined and controlled in normal. After cyclophotocoagulation, average lOP at 1wk was 16. 7±14. 4mmHg, 15. 7±8. 8mmHg at 1mo and 12. 9±4. 5mmHg at 6mo, which compared with untreatment ( 39. 6 ± 10. 0mmHg ) was statistically significant different (P<0. 01). ln follow up time 3 cases were relapsed which were supplied with transscleral or endoscope cyclophotocoagulation. During the follow-up period no endophthalmitis and complications such as eyeball atrophy were found.
CONCLUSlON: The intraocular cyclophotocoagulation and vitrectomy simultaneously can deal with the primary disease and secondary neovascular glaucoma. The operation can be accurately performed under direct cyclophotocoagulation and it is a safe and effective way for neovascular glaucoma which needs vitreous surgery.
