Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to compare the macular thicknesses measured (MT) with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with ocular hypertension (OHT) or primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) with that of normal population. Material and Methods: The 84 eyes of 44 subjects were examined after pupillary dilation with OCT (Zeiss Stratus OCT, model 3000). There were 3 groups; OHT group (group 1) (n=20), POAG group (group 2) (n=28), control group, (group 3) (n=36). The results of MT in the areas of 1 mm, 3 mm ve 6 mm, examined for quadrants (fovea, superior, medial, inferior medial, nasal medial, temporal medial, superior lateral, inferior lateral, nasal lateral, and temporal lateral) were recorded and compared statistically. Results: The mean age of the groups were 52.3±7.5 years in group 1, 58.1±10.5 years in group 2 and 52.4±5.8 years in group 3. There were no statisticially significant diffrences among groups regarding ages (p>0.05). When we compare the measurements of the foveal thickness there were no difference among groups. Regarding the other parameters (superior medial, inferior medial, nasal medial, temporal medial, superior lateral, inferior lateral, nasal lateral, temporal lateral), although there were no significant differences between group 1 and group 3 (p>0.05); there were statistically significant differences between group 2 and group 3 and group 1 and group 2 (p<0.001). Conclusion: MT mesurements were affected significantly in POAG when compared with that of normal population and OHT.

Özet

Amaç: Primer açık açılı glokom (PAAG) ve Oküler hipertansiyon (OHT) olgularında optik koherens tomografi (OKT) ile değerlendirilen makülar kalınlık (MK) ölçümlerinin, normal popülasyonla karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Stratus OKT (Zeiss Stratus OCT Model 3000) cihazı ile 44 olgunun 84 gözü pupiller dilatasyon sonrası incelendi. OHT grup 1 (n=20), PAAG grup 2 (n=28), kontrol grubu grup 3 (n=36) olarak sınıflandırıldı. MK analizi 1mm, 3mm ve 6mm'lik alanlarda kadranlara göre değerlendirilerek (fovea, süperior iç, inferior iç, nazal iç, temporal iç, süperior dış, inferior dış, nazal dış, temporal dış) sonuçlar kaydedildi ve veriler istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Yaş ortalamaları grup 1'de 52.3±7.5 yıl, grup 2'de 58.1±10.5 yıl ve grup 3'de 52.4±5.8 yıldı. Gruplar arasında yaş dağılımı açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark saptanmadı (p>0.05). MK analiz sonuçları (fovea, süperior iç, inferior iç, nazal iç, temporal iç, süperior dış, inferior dış, nazal dış, temporal dış) değerlendirdiğinde, foveal kalınlık açısından 3 grup arasında farklılık saptanmadı (p>0.05). Diğer tüm parametrelerde (süperior iç, inferior iç, nazal iç, temporal iç, süperior dış, inferior dış, nasal dış, temporal dış) grup 1 ve grup 3 arasında fark tespit edilmezken (p>0.05); grup 2 ve grup 3 ile grup 1 ve grup 2 arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık belirlendi (p<0.001). Tartışma: OHT ve normal popülasyonla karşılaştırıldığında, glokomlu olgularda maküler kalınlık ölçümlerinin anlamlı derecede etkilendiği görüldü.
