PURPOSE: To introduce a new method for estimation of the target intraocular pressure (TIOP) in naïve eyes with early primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) using corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF).
METHODS: A prospective quasi-experimental study was conducted on naïve 90 eyes of 45 patients who were newly diagnosed with early primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). They were compared to 72 eyes of 36 normal subjects. The TIOP was determined for each eye. The IOP Goldmann (IOPg), IOP corneal-compensated (IOPcc), CH and CRF were estimated by ocular response analyzer (ORA, Reichert) device. Measurements were taken for each patient prior to treatment and after 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of receiving medications; either monotherapy or combination therapy.
RESULTS: For all patients, there was a significant negative correlation (p < 0.05) between IOP, either IOPg or IOPcc, and CH, while a significant positive relationship (p < 0.05) existed between IOP and CRF. For patients with early POAG, the CH was significantly increased (p ≤ 0.001), while CRF was significantly decreased (p ≤ 0.001) when TIOP was achieved. At IOP levels higher than TIOP, CH value was lower than CRF with a significant negative correlation between them in contrast to controls. This correlation was reversed on reaching TIOP and CH values became higher than CRF similar to controls.
CONCLUSION: CH, CRF and IOP measured by ORA can be used for TIOP estimation. This provides us with a guide for assessing the effectiveness of medications introduced to patients with POAG.
