Anterior Chamber Angle Assessment Techniques

Survey of Ophthalmology, 2008
Angle-closure glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Diagnosis and treatment are intricately related to angle assessment techniques. This article reviews the literature on angle assessment and provides recommendations about optimal techniques based on the published evidence.

Integrins in human anterior chamber angle

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 1995
Integrins, which are composed of an alpha and beta subunit, are capable of binding to a number of extracellular matrix proteins and, hence, affect cell adhesion and proliferation.The distribution of the integrin beta (beta 1, beta 3-beta 5) and alpha (alpha 1-6 and alpha v) subunits in human anterior chamber angle was studied in eyes from subjects aged

Effect of Pilocarpine on Anterior Chamber Angles

Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1995
Pilocarpine is widely used in the treatment of glaucoma, especially for the acute form of angle-closure glaucoma. Previous studies have shown that pilocarpine decreases central anterior chamber depth. In the present study, a quantitative measurement method, applying Scheimpflug photography, was used to report whether pilocarpine also affected the ...

Anterior chamber angle recession in uveal melanomas

Albrecht von Graefes Archiv f�r Klinische und Experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 1978
Sixteen uveal melanomas in celloidin sections and eight other fresh cases of melanoma were examined using different clinical and histological methods. A recession of the lateral border of the anterior chamber angle was found in most of them. The grade of this distortion varied from very deep to insignificant, but was apparent in most cases. Seven fresh

Anterior Chamber Angles in Different Types of Mucopolysaccharidoses

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
To evaluate the anterior chamber angle status and estimate the intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) type I, II, IV, and VI.Prospective cross-sectional study.This study enrolled 27 consecutive MPS patients (8 patients with MPS I, 4 patients with MPS II, 9 patients with MPS IV, and 6 patients with MPS VI) and 20 normal

Hong’s grading for evaluating anterior chamber angle width

Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
To compare Hong's grading method with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), gonioscopy, and the dark-room prone-position test (DRPT) for evaluating anterior chamber width.The anterior chamber angle was graded using Hong's grading method, and Hong's angle width was calculated from the arctangent of Hong's grades.

Gonioscopy: evaluation of the anterior chamber angle. Part I

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 1996
Gonioscopy is the standard procedure for examination of the anterior chamber angle, and is an invaluable technique in primary eye care. The clinician must practise the technique and observe many angles, because enormous but often subtle variation can be seen by the experienced observer in both normal and abnormal angles.
