Abstract

The purpose of this case report is to share our clinical experience with four patients who use antidepressant drugs and apply to our emergency department with acute angle-closure glaucoma. We studied eight eyes of four patients and only one patient had a history of glaucoma treatment.We applied YAG-laser iridotomy to four eyes, trabeculectomy to two eyes, cataract surgery to two eyes and continued to topical anti glaucoma medication in six eyes.

Özet

Bu çalışmada akut açı kapanması glokomu ile acilen kliniğimize başvuran ve antidepresan ilaç kullanmakta olan dört olgunun tanı ve tedavisi ile ilgili deneyimimizi aktarmayı amaçlanmıştır Sadece birinde bilinen glokom öyküsü mevcut olan dört hastanın sekiz gözünü incelenmiştir. Tedavi amacıyla dört göze YAG lazer iridotomi, iki göze trabekülektomi, iki göze katarakt cerrahisi, üç göze periferik iridektomi uygulanmıştır ve altı gözün topikal antiglokomatöz tedavi ile takibine devam edilmiştir.
