Abstract

Purpose: To determine whether there is any effect of gender on the anterior chamber depth in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome (PS). Material and methods: The patients who received cataract surgery in Tokat State Hospital were evaluated retrospectively. The patients with PS were receipt to work. Patients were divided into two groups according to gender: group 1 (male) and group 2 (female). The data of both anterior chamber depth and axial length of the eye were recorded. Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age (p> 0.05). Anterior chamber depth was 3.18 ± 0.34 mm in group 1 and group 2 was 3.23 ± 0.42 mm, respectively (p> 0.05). while in group 1, group 2, 21.4 ± 1.5 mm 22.1 ± 1.4 mm, respectively (p> 0.05). Discussion: There is no significant difference in both anterior chamber depth and axial length of eye between males and females with pseudoexfoliative syndrome.

Özet

Amaç: Pseudoeksfolyatif sendrom (PS) olgularında cinsiyetin ön kamara derinliği üzerine herhangi bir etkisinin olup olmadığının incelenmesi. Materyal ve metot: Tokat Devlet Hastane’sinde katarakt ameliyatı olan hastalar geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. PS olan hastalar çalışmaya alındı. Olgular cinsiyete göre grup 1 (erkek) ve grup 2 (kız) olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların ön kamara derinlikleri ve göz aks uzunlukları kayıt edildi. Bulgular: Yaş açısından iki grup arasında anlamlı bir fark yoktu (p>0,05). Ön kamara derinliği grup 1’de 3,18±0,34 mm iken grup 2’de 3,23±0,42 mm idi (p>0,05). Göz ön arka aks uzunluğu ise grup 1’de 21,4±1,5 mm iken grup 2’de 22,1±1,4 mm idi (p>0,05). Sonuç: PS olgularında ön karma derinliği ve göz ön arka aks uzunluğu kadın ve erkeklerde birbirinden farklı değildir.
