Abstract

The effect of hormone replacement therapy on the visual field sensitivity, lacrimal tear and intraocular pressu¬re measurements in postmenopausal women. Purpose: To determine the effect of hormone replacement therapy on visual field sensitivity, lacrimal tear and intraocular pressure measurements in postmenopausal women. Material and Methods: Those -women who underwent spontaneous menopause at least for the last two years and free of additional systemic disease were included in the study. Twenty case received transdermal l7 beta-estradiol (50 g/gün) and medroxyprogesterone acetate (10 mg/gün) hor¬mone replacement therapy. Twenty-six women who refused the treatment were considered to be the control group. The duration of the treatment was 12 days per cycle. Complete ophthalmological examination, visual field sensitivity, Schirmer tear measurement, break up time and intraocular pressure measurements using Goldmann applanation tono-metry were performed before initiating the treatment, and 6 and 12 months after the treatment. Ocular complaints of the subjects such as itching and burning were also evaluated. Results: Pretreatmsnt visual field sensitivity, lacrimal tear and the intraocular pressure measurements were not found to be different between groups (all p values, >0.05). At the first-year exam, those women who received hormone replacement therapy were found to have significantly lower intraocular pressure measurements with respect to the baseline levels (p

Özet

Amaç: Postmenopozal kadınlarda sık olarak kullanılmakta olan hormon replasman tedavisinin görme alanı duyarlılığı, gözyaşı ve göziçi basınç ölçümlerine etkilerinin saptanması Yöntem: En az iki yıl süreyle spontan menopozda olan ve başka bir sistemik problemi olmayan kadînlar çalışma kapsamına alındı. Yirmi olgu transdermal 17 beta-estradiol (50 mikrogram/gün) ve medroksiprogesteron asetat 10 mg/gün) ile hormone replasman tedavileri uygulandı. Tedaviyi kabul etmeyen toplam 26 kadın hasta kontrol grubunu oluşturdu. Tedavi öncesi ve tedaviden sonraki 6. ve 12. aylarda hastaların tam göz muayeneleri, görme alanı duyarlılıkları, Schirmer testleriyle göz yaşı ölçümleri, göz yaşı kırılma zamanları ve Goldmann applanasyon aleti ile göz için basınçları ölçüldü. Hastaların gözde batma, yanma gibi şikayetleri de değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Tedavi öncesi tedavili ve tedavisiz gruplarda görme alanı duyarlılık, gözyaşı ve göziçi basınç ölçümlerinde anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmadı (tüm P değerleri, >0.05). Tedavili grubun birinci yılda yapılan göziçi basınç ölçümlerinde tedavisiz gruba ve ilk bazal muayenelerine göre anlamlı bir düşüklük saptandı (p
