Akansha Yadav, Sadhvi Singh, Subhash Chandra Saroj, Rizwan Ahmed, Suraj Singh

Aim and Objectives:  To evaluate the factor which affect the outcome after surgical management in patient with lens induce glaucoma.  To study the prevalence of Lens induced glaucoma in eastern Utter Pradesh  The clinical factors affecting the final outcome of lens include glaucoma patients in respect to type of glaucoma, duration of glaucoma, visual outcome, IOP and corneal clarity. Material and Methods: 100 patients will be included in the study. All patients with lens induced glaucoma visiting tertiary eye care centre in regional institute of Ophthalmology, Sitapur irrespective of age and sex. A detailed history and a through Ocular examination was done. Patient recruited to the study was operated under local anesthesia after Peri-bulbar block for total lid and globe akinesia, Sics/phacoemulsification with or without IOL implantation with or without trabeculectomy. Results: The patients including the demographic and personal relevant details were collected. The chief complaints including ocular pain, headache, blurred vision, perception of coloured halos, nausea and vomiting were recorded. The slit lamp examination was carried out in glaucoma patients and sign of circumcilliary congestion, corneal oedema, shallow anterior chamber according measured by goldmann applanation tonometry, gonioscopy will be done. Fundus evaluation via direct ophthalmoscope and indirect ophthalmoscopy with 90 D/78D lenses. The sample size was calculated based on a previous study that reported that the prevalence of lens induced glaucoma was 7%, 95% level of confidence and Error rate, usually set at 0.05 level is 4. The Intra ocular pressure (IOP) was less than 40 mmHg in most of the patients. The maximum patients have more than 10 mmHg (53.63%) IOP at day 1. Moreover, the IOP was significantly reduced from day 1 to 6 week post-operatively in lens induced glaucoma. Conclusion: The females seemed to have an increased risk (female/male ratio 2.03:1) of having Lens-Induced Glaucoma as compared to males.
