Abstract Background To assess the changes of anterior chamber angle in patients with shallow anterior chamber and normal anterior chamber after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation (IOL) using anterior segment swept-source optical coherence tomography (AS-SS-OCT). Methods This was a prospective case control study; 60 eyes of 60 patients who underwent cataract surgery. Based on anterior chamber depth (ACD) and gonioscopy findings, the eyes were classified into two groups, shallow anterior chamber group (30 eyes) and normal anterior chamber group (30 eyes). AS-SS-OCT was used to measure ACD and angle parameters angle opening distance (AOD), angle recess area (ARA), trabecular iris space area(TISA), and trabecular iris angle (TIA). Serial changes in each group were measured before and 3 months after phacoemulsification and IOL, and the differences between the two groups were compared. Results All angle parameters including ACD, AOD, ARA, TISA, and TIA in both groups at 3 months after cataract surgery were significantly different from the preoperative values (p<0.01). In addition, we found significant differences of all angle parameters between groups of shallow anterior chamber (SAC) and normal anterior chamber (NAC) (All P< 0.05). Besides, the TISA750 in superior quadrant and anterior chamber volume (ACV) were significantly smaller in the group of SAC than those in the group of NAC (P = 0.041 and 0.002, respectively). Conclusions The parameters of anterior chamber increased significantly in both two groups but not increase to the same extent 3 months after phacoemulsification. Iris thickening may also be one of the narrow angle factors,not just age-related lens thickening.

Anatomic Locations

Iris pigment epithelial (IPE) cysts are a subset of iris cysts that arise from the IPE. They are spontaneously erupting epithelial-lined cavities that are found in various anatomic locations of the iris, including the iris pupillary margin, midzone, periphery, and free floating in the vitreous or anterior chamber. We report the case of an asymptomatic 13-year-old boy with an incidental finding of a dislodged anterior chamber cyst diagnosed on routine examination. Modern multimodal image analysis of the cyst including anterior segment optical coherence tomography and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was utilized to characterize the microstructural anatomy of the lesion. The patient was managed conservatively without complications. Cysts of the IPE typically do not affect vision or ocular health and can be monitored and observed after ascertaining no associated malignancy. Initial diagnostic investigation can include UBM and anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Intervention should be reserved only for cases where the cyst growth leads to obstruction of the visual axis and/or other secondary complications.

Abstract Background To evaluate changes in anterior segment morphology on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) without tamponade. Methods Patients who underwent PPV without tamponade for epiretinal membrane were evaluated. Eligible patients underwent intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement and AS-OCT preoperatively as well as 1 month and 6 months post-operatively. Anterior chamber width (ACW), anterior chamber depth (ACD), trabecular iris angle (TIA), angle opening distance at 500 and 750 µm (AOD), and trabecular iris space area at 500 and 750 µm (TISA) at four quadrants were recorded and analyzed. Additionally, the mean values of TIA (MTIA), AOD (MAOD), and TISA (MTISA) for each eye (mean of four quadrants) were analyzed. Results 23 patients completed the study. The mean age of participants was 56.4 ± 3.6 years of age and 13/23 (56%) were female. Mean IOP of patients was 18.1 ± 1.1, 18.3 ± 1.1, and 18.1 ± 1.2 preoperatively,1 month post-operatively, and 6 months post-operatively, respectively. (p = 0.83). No difference was detected post-operatively in measurements of ACW, ACD, MTIA, MAOD500, MAOD750, MTISA500, and MTISA750. Conclusion Pars plana vitrectomy without tamponade was not associated with changes in anterior chamber morphology.
