Description
Summary:AIM: To study and analyze the clinical effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens(IOL)implantation combined with goniosychialysis in treatment of acute angle-closure glaucoma with cataract. <p>METHODS: From June 2010 to October 2018, 40 patients(40 eyes)with acute angle-closure glaucoma and cataract which anterior chamber angle adhesion is less than 180°admitted to our hospital were enrolled in this study. They were divided into observation group and control group according to different surgical methods. The patients in the control group were treated by phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. The observation group was treated with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with goniosychialysis. The difference between the two groups was compared. <p>RESULTS: At 3mo, 6mo after operation, the visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber angle grading of the observation group were better than those of the control group(<i>P</i><0.05). <p>CONCLUSION: Regarding the treatment of acute angle closure glaucoma, who has cataract and less than 180° peripheral anterior synechia, phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with goniosychialysis showed significant clinical effect.
