Abstract:
Objective To explore the agreement of anterior chamber angle examination by slit lamp optical coherence tomography (SL-OCT) and gonioscope.Design Case series.Participants Thirteen patients with primary glaucoma (26 eyes) and 8 normal persons(16 eyes).Methods Anterior chamber angle was measured with SL-OCT and gonioscope in turns for temporal,nasal,superior and inferior quadrant.Results of two methods were analyzed and the data were analyzed with Pearson correlation coefficient and Kappa value.Main Outcome Measures Anterior chamber angle.Results The Pearson correlation coefficient of the two methods was 0.86(P=0.00)and the Kappa value is 0.75 (P=0.00).The specificity and sensitivity of detecting occludable angle were 94.7% and 89.4%.Conclusions Anterior chamber angle examination with SL-OCT and gonioscope are well consistent.The specificity and sensitivity for SL-OCT in detecting occludable angle is satisfying.SL-OCT can be regard as an objective assistant method for the diagnosis of angle closure glaucoma.
