Objective
To observe the axial length and anterior chamber depth in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).
Methods
Randomly selected 90 eyes of forty-five patients with BRVO were enrolled in this study. There were 25 males and 20 females. The mean age was (46.22±13.45) years. All the patients were underwent examination of visual acuity, slit-lamp microscope, indiophthalmoscope, fundus color photography and fundus fluorescence angiography (FFA). Randomly selected 45 healthy individuals for control group, including 28 males and 17 females. The mean age was (48.24±15.77) years. The axial lengths and anterior chamber depths of affected and fellow eyes of BRVO patients and the eyes of controls were measured using IOL Master. The data were compared by the two sample paired t test.
Results
The mean axial length of the affected eyes in the BRVO group was (22.69±0.99) mm, and that of the fellow eyes group was (22.78±1.24) mm. The difference in axial length between the affected eyes and fellow eyes in the BRVO group was not significant (t=0.355, P＞0.05). The mean axial length of the right eyes in the control group was (23.38±1.32) mm, and that of the left eyes in the control group was (23.37±1.27) mm. The difference in axial length between the left eyes and right eyes in the control group was not significant (t=0.017, P＞0.05), while the difference in axial length between the affected eyes in the BRVO group and the right, left eyes in the control group was significant (t=?2.563, ?2.663; P＜0.05). The mean anterior chamber depth of the affected eyes in the BRVO group was (2.66±0.26) mm, and that of the fellow eyes was (2.65±0.30) mm. The difference in anterior chamber depth between the affected eyes and fellow eyes in the BRVO group was not significant (t=0.089, P＞0.05). The mean anterior chamber depth of the right eyes in the control group was (2.56±0.29) mm, and that of the left eyes was (2.59±0.30) mm. The difference in anterior chamber depth between the left eyes and right eyes in the control group was not significant (t=?0.592, P＞0.05). The difference in anterior chamber depth between the affected eyes in the BRVO group and the right, left eyes in the control group was not significant (t=1.779, 1.778, P＞0.05).
Conclusion
In the affected eyes of BRVO, the axial length is shorter and anterior chamber depth is normal.
Objective To evaluate the effect of releasable sutures on shallow anterior chamber, filtering bleb and long-term intraocular pressure (IOP). Methods We searched MEDLINE (1971 to 2007), OVID (1971 to 2007) and National Science and Technology Library (1971 to 2007). Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the effect of releasable sutures on trabeculectomy were collected. Study selection and assessment, data collection and analyses were undertaken and cross-checked by two reviewers. Meta-analyses were performed with The Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 4.2.10 software. Results Six RCTs involving 341 eyes were included. Significant differences were observed in the reduction of postoperative shallow anterior chamber (RD –0.23, 95%CI –0.31 to –0.14, Plt;0.000 01) and functional filtering blebs (RD –0.15, 95%CI –0.27 to –0.02, P=0.02). But, no differences were observed for the control of long-term IOP (SMD –0.13, 95%CI –0.37 to 0.10, P=0.27). Conclusion The evidence currently available showed that releasable sutures could reduce the incidence of shallow anterior chamber and has no beneficial effect in controlling long-term IOP. The current evidence is insufficient to define the efficacy of maintaining functional filtering blebs. Further large-scale, high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed.

Methods: analysing the 23 cases history of eye hyphema from September 2007 to September 2008 in West China Hospital of Sichuan University caused by blunt. The treatments were: (1) semisupine rest; (2) eyes bandaged; (3) to use hemostatic medicine; (4) surgery. Results: Hyphema in Ⅰand Ⅱ class could be absorbed fastly.Secondary hemorrhage often need to be taken for surgical treatment, depending on the slow recovery of vision. Conclusion: Early appropriate and positive treatment can reduce secondary glaucoma, corneal complications such as blood.
A three-dimensional (3D) model of human anterior chamber is reconstructed to explore the effect of different corneal temperatures on the heat transfer in the chamber. Based on the optical coherence tomography imaging of the volunteers with normal anterior chamber, a 3D anterior chamber model was reconstructed by the method of UG parametric design. Numerical simulation of heat transfer and aqueous humor flow in the whole anterior chamber were analyzed by the finite volume methods at different corneal temperatures. The results showed that different corneal temperatures had obvious influence on the temperature distribution and the aqueous flow in the anterior chamber. The temperature distribution is linear and axial symmetrical around the pupillary axis. As the temperature difference increases, the symmetry becomes poorer. Aqueous floated along the warm side and sank along the cool side which forms a vortexing flow. Its velocity increased with the addition of temperature difference. Heat fluxes of cornea, lens andiris were mainly affected by the aqueous velocity. The higher the velocity, the bigger more absolute value of the above-mentioned heat fluxes became. It is practicable to perform the numerical simulation of anterior chamber by the optical coherence tomography imaging. The results are useful for studying the important effect of corneal temperature on the heat transfer and aqueous humor dynamics in the anterior chamber.
Tweenty-seven cases (27 eyes) of retinal detachment and change of anterior chamber angle induced by contusional eye injuried were reported ,in which there were 23 eyes with obviously visible recession of the chamber angle, and 10 eyes with adherent lesions in the chamber angle, The position of retinal holes and detachment of retina as well as changes of anterior chamber angle in majority of cases located at the sites of trauma or the quadr ants opposite to them. The proportions of retinal detachment due to dialysis of ora sen'am or round retinal holes were found to be high in this series of cases,and the
round holes were found in injured eyes with relatively long courses of ocalar trauma. Owing to the close interrelationship between rbegmatogenous retinal detachment and the anterior chamber angle lesions after the eontusional ocular injuries,it was suggested that the chamber angle changes might be
used as one of the important referential indicators in diagnosis of traumatic retinal detachment induced by blunt ocular injuries.
