Contrary to the previous reports, this increase in the risk of ocular hypertension was not infl uenced by patient age.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe intraocular pressure (IOP) changes after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for the management of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and factors infl uencing IOP.

Key Findings & Data:Materials and methods: Fifty-eight eyes of 58 patients (34 male, 24 female, mean age: 58,7 ±13,5 years) who underwent PPV for RRD were retrospectively studied.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:Contrary to the previous reports, this increase in the risk of ocular hypertension was not infl uenced by patient age.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe intraocular pressure (IOP) changes after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for the management of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and factors infl uencing IOP. Materials and methods: Fifty-eight eyes of 58 patients (34 male, 24 female, mean age: 58,7 ±13,5 years) who underwent PPV for RRD were retrospectively studied. IOP values of the operated eyes and fellow eyes were compared at the postoperative 1st week, 1st, 3rd and 6th months. The need for glaucoma medications was further recorded at each time point. Results: LogMAR best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved signifi cantly after PPV (p<0.001). There was no signifi cant difference in postoperative IOP between the operated eyes and fellow eyes (p=0.54). However, the number of glaucoma medications was signifi cantly higher in the operated eyes at the fi nal visit (p<0.001) and the maximum number of glaucoma medications needed during the follow-up was also signifi cantly higher in the operated eyes (p<0.001). The number of eyes needing glaucoma medications was signifi cantly higher in the operated eyes (36%) compared to fellow eyes (3.4%) (p<0.001). There was not any difference in the mean age of the patients who needed glaucoma medications treatment and who did not (p=0.74). Conclusion: We observed that the need for glaucoma medications increased signifi cantly after PPV for RRD. Contrary to the previous reports, this increase in the risk of ocular hypertension was not infl uenced by patient age.
