[Ocular manifestations in patients with chronic renal insufficiency who are not dialysis: about 60 cases].

OBJECTIVE

describe the ocular manifestations encounterd in chronic renal failure not on dialysis in order to ensure better management.

METHODS

it is a descriptive analytical study, which took place from febrauary 2017 to june 2017. The study was carried out jointly in the Nephrology and Ophortamology departments of the Yopougon hospital and university center. It focused on patients with renal failure not on dialysis. A total of 60 patients were included with regard to the study inclusion criteria.

RESULTS

patients personal history was dominated by high blood pressure arterial (88%) diabetes (27%). The decrease in visual acuity (BAV) and pruritus were symptoms at rates of 66.66% and 26% respectively. The review biomicroscopic anterior segment, has shown unilateral cataracts in 26.67% of cases. At the posterior pole, optic neuropathy was predominant (23,33%). The macular edemas were 10%. Arterial shrinkage (16.66%) was the most observed lesion of peripheral chorioretin. The hypertensive retinopathy (HR) and large papillary excavation (GEP) were the abnormalities most found on the back of the eye, each observing each in 43.75% of cases. We found no correlation between eye manifestations and IRC.

CONCLUSION

There was no direct link between kidney failure and eye damage Observed. Several factors could explain the eye signs, including HTA and diabetes.
