PURPOSE: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PES) seems to be a systemic condition. However, to an ophthalmologist it represents a continual challenge, due to unclear etiology and patho-genesis, and because of a potential for development of an aggressive glaucoma, and cataract surgery complications. According to some findings, PES could be a factor of hastened aging, which means that it could be considered as a secondary aging factor.
METHODS: Frequencies of secondary aging diseases (non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, atherosclerotic myocardiopathy, chronic obstructive lung diseases, arterial hypertension, and PES) were investigated in 162 patients with age-related cataract and 55 age- and sex-matched control subjects, and analyzed by a logistic regression. The authors also determined elements of antioxidative protection in a group of sera from patients with cataract and PES, and compared them to those obtained from patients with cataract without PES (activity of catalase and peroxidase, glutathione, vitamins C and E), and total antioxidative protection (%iMDA). Antioxidant defense of aqueous humors, expressed as a rate of induced malondialdehyde (%iMDA), and total thiol groups in the lens corticonuclear blocks (TSH) were estimated in samples of 17 patients with PES and cataract and 55 patients with cataract only.
RESULTS: Logistic regression showed the highest odds ratio for PES (OR=4.516; p<0.05). Catalytic activity of serum catalase had significantly lower values in patients with PES (p<0.05). Anti oxidative defense of aqueous humor and lens had lower values in patients with PES.
CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that PES might be a significant factor for cataractogenesis. At least a part of pathogenesis alterations in an eye with PES could be the result of higher intensity of oxidative stress.
