Abstract
Objective To investigate the prevalence of primary anterior chamber angle closure in the elderly population in the Medical Examination Center of our hospital. Methods A total of 5,025 elderly people who had primary anterior chamber angle closure screening in our hospital during health examination between February 2011 and January 2016 were selected. The incidence of primary anterior chamber angle closure and intraocular pressure were recorded. Results Of the 5,025 elderly people, 98 cases had primary anterior chamber angle closure, the prevalence was 1.95％. The patients showed blurred vision, increased intraocular pressure, pain, iridization and so on;some patients had accompanied nausea and vomiting. Of the 98 cases, 23 had anterior chamber angle closure under bright light (23.47％), 75 cases had anterior chamber angle closure under dark light (76.53％); 41 cases had binocular vision ≥ 0.3 (41.84％), with the intraocular pressure of (14.73 ± 3.02) mmHg. The incidence of male was 0.90％, that of female was 2.78％; the incidence of 50-59 years old people was 0.62％, that of 60-69 years old people was 2.57％, that of ≥ 70 years old people was 3.74％; the prevalence rate was 2.53％ in rural areas and 1.49％ in urban areas; the prevalence rate of illiterate people was 3.40％, that of literate people was 1.81％; the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The intraocular pressure was not significantly different between the populations with different gender, region or education level (P > 0.05). With the increase of age, intraocular pressure of the tested population showed a downward trend (P < 0.05). Conclusions The morbidity rate of primary anterior chamber angle closure is quite high in elderly population and is influenced by gender, age, living areas, education level and other factors.Clinical screening should be strengthened.关键词
