Cataract Extraction in Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients
Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com the disease, central vision is normally preserved. When macula starts to become affected this can lead to central visual loss [1]. Normally patients present with night blindness and restricted peripheral visual field [2]. Examination of the retina shows arteriolar attenuation, bony spicules and pigmentary changes affecting the mid retinal periphery ...
متن کاملOutcome of cataract surgery in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
AIM To determine the visual benefit of cataract extraction in patients with retinitis pigmentosa and to identify risk factors for poor outcome. METHODS A retrospective analysis was undertaken of a continuous series of 142 eyes of 89 patients with retinitis pigmentosa undergoing cataract surgery between 1985 and 1997. RESULTS Mean age at surgery was 47.5 years (range 24-81 years). In 100 eye...
متن کاملRisk Factors for Posterior Subcapsular Cataract in Retinitis Pigmentosa.
Purpose Posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) is a frequent complication in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The risk factors for PSC formation in RP are largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for PSC. Methods We retrospectively studied a total of 322 eyes of 173 patients who were diagnosed with typical RP. We considered the following possible ri...
متن کاملStudy of Patterns of Inheritance in Affected Patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa in Iranian Populations
Background and Aims: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the most common form of inherited retinal degeneration, photoreceptors loss of which in the retina causes visual loss. The purpose of the present study was to determine patterns of inheritance in RP patients in Yazd to help the health professional for designing suitable laboratory testing for the high risk families. Materials and Methods: Thirt...
متن کاملSpatial judgments in patients with retinitis pigmentosa
Previous investigations into cortical plasticity in the presence of ocular disease have focused on central retinal damage. Perceptually, patients often report distortions of visual space which can be partially explained by perceptual filling-in. The mechanisms involved could also apply to peripheral field loss. Spatial interval discrimination was tested in 28 retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients ...
