PURPOSE: This study focused on the prevalence, unique features, and required treatment of steroid-dependent Posner-Schlossman syndrome (SD-PSS), and analyzed the outcome of 2% Ganciclovir and gradual decrement steroid combination therapy in SD-PSS patients.
METHODS: Retrospective comparative and interventional study. SD-PSS was defined as PSS patients with continuous steroid use for over 3 months and relapsed within 2 weeks after steroid withdrawal or tapered dosage. Totally 74 SD-PSS eyes were compared with 78 randomly chosen non-steroid dependent PSS eyes. SD-PSS patients who underwent 2% GCV and gradual decrement steroid therapy with at least two follow-ups (n = 50) were analyzed for the treatment outcome.
RESULTS: The prevalence of SD-PSS is 26.87% (97/361) in our PSS patients. SD-PSS patients demonstrated significantly younger onset age, longer disease course, higher intraocular pressure (IOP), and higher degree of iris depigmentation at the first visit. They required significantly more IOP-lowering medication and stronger steroid after the first visit. Our 2% GCV and gradual decrement steroid therapy helped 66% (33/50) SD-PSS patients with steroid withdrawal (median stable time: 13 weeks) and another 32% (16/50) SD-PSS managed to lower the dose or strength of topical steroid. Steroid-induced ocular hypertension happened in 5.26% (19/361) of the PSS patients.
CONCLUSION: Young onset age, high IOP, and high iris depigmentation level during acute stage are indicators of steroid dependency in PSS patients. SD-PSS patients require more medical surveillance. Two percent ganciclovir and gradual decrement steroid combination therapy help with steroid withdrawal and minimize steroid use.
