Association of peripheral anterior synechiae with anterior segment parameters in eyes with primary angle closure glaucoma

Abstract To investigate the association of peripheral anterior synechiae (PAS) with intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior-segment parameters in subjects with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). A total of 267 subjects with PACG were recruited and underwent gonioscopy and anterior-segment optica...

A total of 267 subjects with PACG were recruited and underwent gonioscopy and anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT). Customized software was used to measure ASOCT parameters, including angle opening distance (AOD750) and trabecular-iris-space-area (TISA750) at 750 µm from the scleral spur, anterior chamber depth, width, area and volume (ACD, ACW, ACA, ACV), iris thickness (IT750), iris area (IAREA), and lens vault (LV). Presenting IOP was defined as the first IOP reading before the initiation of IOP-lowering treatment.

PAS was present in 122 (45.7%) subjects, and was most frequently found in the superior quadrant (79.5%). Subjects with PAS had greater presenting IOP (28.7 ± 12.9 vs 22.4 ± 9.7 mmHg, p < 0.001), narrower AOD750 (p < 0.001), smaller TISA750 (p < 0.001), ACD (p = 0.04), ACA (p = 0.02), ACV (p = 0.01) and larger LV (p = 0.01) compared to PACG eyes without PAS.

A multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher presenting IOP (β = 0.20, p < 0.001), worse visual field mean deviation (β = − 0.20, p = 0.01) and narrower AOD750 (β = − 0.25, p = 0.03) were the only parameters that significantly correlated with the extent of PAS in clock hours. Almost one-half of the subjects with PACG demonstrated PAS; these eyes were associated with higher presenting IOP, smaller anterior segment dimensions and more severe disease.Yunhua LooTin A.
