Abstract

Purpose: To determine demographic and clinical factors that affect the outcomes of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Materi al and Met hod: In this retrospective study, we analyzed the medical records of 54 eyes of 39 patients who underwent SLT treatment for POAG. Effects of demographic characteristics including age, sex, treated eyes, and family history of glaucoma on SLT success were investigated. Effects of clinical features including baseline intraocular pressure (IOP), baseline number of antiglaucomatous medications,baseline cup to disc ratio (c/d), trabecular meshwork (TM) pigmentation, central corneal thickness, and number of laser spots on SLT success were also evaluated. Success was defined as a ≥ 20% reduction in IOP without additional medications, laser, or glaucoma surgery. Re sults: Overall, 1-year after SLT, the mean IOP reduction was 4.7±3.2 mmHg and the mean success rate was 59.3±6%. Among the all investigated factors, only baseline IOP was a significant predictor for the efficacy of SLT in POAG (p

Özet

Amaç: Primer açık açılı glokomlu (PAAG) hastalarda Selektif Lazer Trabeküloplasti (SLT) sonuçlarına etki eden klinik ve demografik özellikleri saptamak. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu retrospektif çalışmada, PAAG için SLT tedavisi uygulanan 39 hastanın 54 gözüne ait tıbbi kayıtları incelendi. Yaş, cinsiyet, tedavi edilen göz, ailede glokom hikâyesi gibi demografik özelliklerin SLT başarısına etkisi araştırıldı. Ayrıca, başlangıç GİB değeri,antiglokomatöz ilaç sayısı, çukurluk-disk oranı (c/d), trabeküler ağ (TA) pigmentasyonu, santral kornea kalınlığı ve uygulanan lazer spot sayısı gibi klinik özelliklerin SLT başarısına etkisi değerlendirildi. Ek medikal, lazer veya cerrahi tedavisi olmaksızın lazer öncesine göre %20 ve üzeri GİB azalması başarı olarak tanımlandı. Sonuçlar: Genel olarak, SLT sonrası 1. yılda ortalama GİB azalması 4,7±3,2 mmHg ve başarı oranı %59,3±6 idi. SLT uygulanan PAAG’da,incelenen tüm faktörler arasından sadece başlangıç GİB SLT etkinliğinde önemli bir belirleyici idi (p
