All patients were phakic and had no previous diagnosis of glaucoma. Patients were matched in terms of age and systemic hypertension. All patients had normal intraocular pressure (IOP) at presentation (defined as less than or equal to 21 mmHg).Results: In the CRVO group, 14 out of 48 patients were diagnosed as having PXF (29.17%). In the BRVO group, 14 out of 164 patients had PXF (8.5%), and in the control group, six out of 70 patients had PXF (8.6%). Differences of percentage between groups were statistically significant (P<0.001, χ2 test). When comparing patient subgroup with ischemic CRVO with subgroup with non-ischemic CRVO, we found that in the ischemic CRVO group, 13 out of 27 patients were diagnosed as having PXF (48.15%), and in the non-ischemic CRVO group, one out of 21 patients was diagnosed as having PXF (4.7%; P<0.001, χ2 test). The relative odds of having CRVO in patients with PXF versus patients without PXF were 4.406 (confidence interval [CI], 2.03–9.54).Conclusion: PXF and CRVO, especially ischemic, are strongly associated in our study. Our results indicate that PXF might be an independent factor for CRVO, as it is related with CRVO independently from glaucoma.Keywords: pseudoexfoliation, ischemic and non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion, branch retinal vein occlusion, glaucomaKaragiannis DKontadakis GAKlados NTsoumpris IKandarakis ASParikakis EAGeorgalas ITsilimbaris MKDove Medical PressarticlePseudoexfoliationischemic and non ischemic central retinal vein occlusionbranch retinal vein occlusionglaucomaGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 10, Pp 879-883 (2015) |
