Methods: This was a prospective observational study carried out at a tertiary referral centre. POAG patients on topical antiglaucoma medications and planned for phaco-ECP were recruited.

There was no difference in mean IOP (17.6 ± 3.4 mm Hg vs. 19.3 ± 4.7 mm Hg pre- and postoperative, respectively, p = 0.26) or peak IOP (19.37 ± 3.74 mm Hg vs. 21.23 ± 5.29 mm Hg, p = 0.25), albeit a significant reduction in IOP-lowering medications (2.2 ± 1.15 vs. 0.35 ± 0.93, p < 0.001) postoperatively. IOP fluctuation was significantly greater (6.4 ± 3.2 mm Hg vs. 4.6 ± 2.1 mm Hg, p = 0.015) with more eyes having significant IOP fluctuation of ≥6 mm Hg (11 eyes [55%] vs. 4 eyes [20%], p < 0.001) postoperatively.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the effect
of phacoemulsification and endo-cyclophotocoagulation
(phaco-ECP) on intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation as
assessed by the water drinking test (WDT) in primary open
angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods: This was a prospective
observational study carried out at a tertiary referral centre.
POAG patients on topical antiglaucoma medications and
planned for phaco-ECP were recruited. WDT was performed
before surgery and 6 weeks postoperatively by drinking
10 mL/kg of water in 5 min followed by serial IOP by
Goldmann applanation tonometry measurements at 15, 30,
45, and 60 min. Mean IOP, IOP fluctuation (difference between highest and lowest IOP), IOP reduction, and factors
affecting IOP fluctuation were analysed. Results: Twenty eyes
from 17 patients were included. Baseline IOP was similar
before (14.7 ± 2.7 mm Hg) and after (14.8 ± 3.4 mm Hg, p =
0.90) surgery. There was no difference in mean IOP (17.6 ±
3.4 mm Hg vs. 19.3 ± 4.7 mm Hg pre- and postoperative,
respectively, p = 0.26) or peak IOP (19.37 ± 3.74 mm Hg vs.
21.23 ± 5.29 mm Hg, p = 0.25), albeit a significant reduction in
IOP-lowering medications (2.2 ± 1.15 vs. 0.35 ± 0.93, p < 0.001)
postoperatively. IOP fluctuation was significantly greater
(6.4 ± 3.2 mm Hg vs. 4.6 ± 2.1 mm Hg, p = 0.015) with more
eyes having significant IOP fluctuation of ≥6 mm Hg (11 eyes
[55%] vs. 4 eyes [20%], p < 0.001) postoperatively. Factors that
were significantly associated with increased postoperative
IOP fluctuations were higher preoperative IOP fluctuation (β =
0.69, 95% CI 0.379–1.582, p = 0.004) and more number of
postoperative antiglaucoma medications (β = 0.627, 95% CI
0.614–3.322, p = 0.008). Conclusion: Reducing aqueous
production with phaco-ECP does not eliminate IOP fluctuation in POAG patients. The increase in postoperative IOP
fluctuation suggests increased outflow resistance after
phaco-ECP. |
