Abstract: Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of extracapsular cataract extraction combined with goniosynechialysis in treatment of acute angle closure glaucoma with cataract. Methods: Thirty-four patients (37 eyes) were subjected to this management. The anterior chamber depth, visual acuity, configuration of chamber anger, and intraocular pressure were determined. Results: After a mean postoperative follow-up of 180 days, the best corrected visual acuity was improved in 28 cases (30 eyes). The mean anterior chamber depth was 1.674±0.478 mm pre-operatively and 3.412±0.169 mm at post-operative 30 days (t=6.743, P<0.001). The intraocular pressure was decreased from a pre-operative of 28.436±3.325 mmHg to a postoperative 7-day of 13.983±5.196 mmHg (t=5.263, P<0.001). Angles of the anterior chamber were opened at post-operative 30 days in all 34 patients. The visual field was not significantly changed in 15 patients at six months after operation. Conclusion: Extracapsular cataract extraction combined with lysis of the synechiae is safe and effective for acute angle closure glaucoma.

[13] ObjectiveTo discuss the causes and appropriate treatment for iris neovascularization following the analysis of cases( eyes). MethodsIt was a retrospective case series study involving patients( eyes)with iris neovascularization diagnosed between September and July . All the patients underwent ophthalmic examination, and all the examination findings and treatments were recorded. The causes, correlative factors, and treatment outcomes of iris neovascularization were analyzed. ResultsOf the patients, ( eyes, .%)had retinal ischemic signs, including vitreous hemorrhage and retinal vascularization on fundus fluorescein angiography, ( eyes, .%)did not have retinal ischemic signs. After months of treatment, retinal vascularization resolved in all the cases, and iris neovascularization resolved completely in patients( eyes, .%), iris neovascularization was still found in patients( eyes, .%). ConclusionsAnterior segment ischemia may also lead to iris vascularization, although retinal ischemia was the main cause. Additionally, iris neovascularization may not always resolve with treatment for retinal ischemia. Finally, anti-VEGF drug injection was an effective treatment for iris neovascularization..

[14] ObjectiveTo discuss the early diagnosis and multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of neovascular glaucoma in ocular ischemic syndrome. MethodsThe medical records of a 54-year-old male patient with cerebral infarction who presented with right-eye vision loss that had persisted for a week were reviewed. After slit-lamp examination and fluorescence angiography, he was diagnosed with ocular ischemic syndrome(OIS)complicated by neovascular glaucoma in the right eye and treated with intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs and panretinal photocoagulation. ResultsAfter three months of treatment, the right-eye iris neovascularization subsided, and the intraocular pressure was controlled within normal limits. ConclusionOcular ischemia is often missed or misdiagnosed by ophthalmologists, neurologists, cardiologists, and vascular surgeons due to its insidious onset and complex clinical manifestations. Therefore, the establishment of multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment can improve the prognosis of OIS patients..
