Globally 57.5 million people were affected by primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in 2015, rising to 65.5 million by 2020. POAG can further lead to optic nerve damage, which can cause total blindness. POAG cannot be cured but can be controlled with medical therapy, laser, and surgical procedures. Antiglaucoma drugs are a method of treatment that can overcome this disease. This study aims to determine the characteristics of patients with POAG and progressivity of cup to disc ratio and intraocular pressure after 3 months of management of 2 antiglaucoma agents in POAG patients in Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang. Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records specific to primary open-angle glaucoma. Data was obtained from the patient register book recorded from February 2022 to May 2022 in Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang.  The parameters analyzed were patients' profiles, namely gender, intraocular pressure, and cup to disc ratio before and after 3 months of combination 2 antiglaucoma agents. Timolol and latanoprost are the 2 antiglaucoma agents given to patients diagnosed of previous POAG (by an ophthalmologist). Results: From 30 patients diagnosed with POAG by an ophthalmologist, the number of primary open-angle glaucoma patients was more female, namely 19 patients (63.3%) than 11 male patients (36.7%), with a ratio of 1.28:1 between women and men. The cup to disc ratio between before and after 3 months of therapy using timolol and latanoprost was 0.628 ± 0.04 before therapy to 0.645 ± 0.06 after therapy (p<0.05). Intraocular pressure before and after 3 months of therapy was 24.76 ± 2.63 before therapy to 17.75 ± 2.08 (p<0,05). Both cup to disc ratio and intraocular pressure differs statistically from before and after therapy. Conclusion: Fixed combination therapy of timolol and latanoprost is effective in lowering intraocular pressure and reducing cup to disc ratio progressivity in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.","PeriodicalId":22012,"journal":{"name":"Sriwijaya Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"43 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91402032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The majority of patients with ptosis require surgery, and clinical characteristics play an important role in classifying the type of ptosis and then formulating a detailed treatment plan strategy so that a better outcome is obtained. \u0000Methods: A descriptive retrospective study was conducted from medical records of post-surgical ptosis patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang from January 2016 to December 2021. The data taken included age, gender, the onset of occurrence, laterality, type of ptosis based on the onset, vertical palpebral fissure (FPV), horizontal palpebral fissure (FPH), margin-reflex distance (MRD), margin limbal distance (MLD), lid lag, bell's phenomenon levator muscle function, type of ptosis surgery and postoperative condition.

Most tumors develop in sun-exposed areas of the head and neck. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) rarely metastasizes but can cause significant morbidity and death due to direct spread to the orbit, head, and neck and frequent recurrence. In addition, approximately 40% of BCC patients have other lesions after 5 years. Although there has been a lot of epidemiological data regarding the characteristics of BCC in developed countries, reports of BCC in Asia, especially in Southern Sumatra, are still at a minimum rate. \u0000Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records specific to periocular BCC. Data were collected from the patient register book recorded from January 2021 to May 2022. The clinical characteristics of patients with BCC, such as gender and age, clinicopathological findings of BCC lesions, and BCC management, were reviewed retrospectively. This study aims to determine the epidemiological profile of the malignant eyelid BCC patient, the BCC lesion characteristics, and the management of BCC cases at Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang. \u0000Results: From 16 BCC patients recruited for this study, most of them were 51–60 years old and 71–80 years old, each with 5 patients (31.3%). The female preponderance of 56.3%. Occulus dextra (56.3%), lower eyelid (62.5%), T1 (87.5%), nodular BCC (75,0%), and primary lesion (75,0%) were the most side, periocular site, size, histopathological subtype and recurrence, respectively. Most therapy done is excision (93,8%), while the leading reconstructive technique was Tenzel’s flap (50,0%). \u0000Conclusion: There is a slight preponderance of females as BCC patients. BCC is commonly found in elderly people. The lower eyelid and right side are the most frequent anatomical locations. Nodular is the most common histological subtype.
