Abstract
Objective
To quantitatively evaluate the long-term changes in biometric characteristics parameters after laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) in primary angle closure suspect (PACS).
Methods
A prospective case series study. 40 PACS patients in Handan Eye Hospital, Hebei were enrolled in five years. LPI was performed in one eye selected randomly of every case (LPI group) , the other was as naturally control eye. Routine ophthalmic tests and A-scan examination were performed on both eyes at presentation、1 year and 5 year after LPI, including central anterior chamber depth (CACD),lens thickness (LT) and axial length (AL).
Results
Compared to before LPI, CACD was significantly deeper at 1 year, but more shallow at 5 year (all P<0.05). CACD in LPI group was more deeper than that in control group at 1 year, 5 year (P<0.05) . Within 5 years, CACD was grad-ually decreased, but the CACD at 5 year in the laser group was still bigger than that in the control group (P<0.05). LT in both team were thick gradually within 5 years (P<0.05) .
Conclusions
LPI can significantly deepen the central anterior chamber and delay the central anterior chamber shallow in PACS.
Key words:
primary angle closure suspect; laser peripheral iridotomy; lens

China Practical Ophthalmology was founded in May 1983. It is supervised by the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association and China Medical University, and publicly distributed at home and abroad. It is a national-level excellent core academic journal of comprehensive ophthalmology and a series of journals of the Chinese Medical Association.
China Practical Ophthalmology aims to guide and improve the theoretical level and actual clinical diagnosis and treatment ability of frontline ophthalmologists in my country. It is characterized by close integration with clinical practice, and timely publishes academic articles and scientific research results with high practical value to clinicians, so that readers can understand and use them, improve the theoretical level and diagnosis and treatment ability of ophthalmologists, help and support their innovative development, and is deeply welcomed and loved by ophthalmologists and readers.
