TO ANALYZE THE ANTERIOR CHAMBER ANGLE IN HIGH MYOPIC, USING GOLDMAN THREE MIRROR GONIOSCOPY

Abstract

Background & Method: 60 eyes of high myopic patients and 60 eyes of general Ophthalmology OPD patients were evaluated at Index Medical College Hospital & Research Centre, Indore from March 2015 to December 2016. All patients were outpatients of the hospital. Each patient included in the study will undergo history taking and complete ophthalmological examination

Result: POAG between high myopic patients and general ophthal OPD patients compared by using Chi-square Test, which found to be statistically significant (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Prevalence of primary open angle glaucoma were increase in high myopic patients. A complete ocular examination including Visual acuity measurement by Snellen‘s chart, Refraction/retinoscopy, Slit lamp biomicroscopy for anterior segment examination, Corrected Intraocular pressure measurement by applation tonometer and CCT, Gonioscopy is done with goldmann three mirror contact lens, Angle is graded according to Schaffer’s grading, All eyes are fully dilated and optic nerve head changes are studied stereoscopically at the slit lamp.

Keywords: Myopic, Gonioscopy, Mirror & Golman.

Study Designed: Prospective Study.
