简介:目的:评价图形视觉诱发电位(patternvisualevokedpotentials,P-VEP)、眼底照相、视野和光学相干断层扫描(opticalcoherencetomography,OCT)对青光眼患者检查的可靠性。方法:对83例95眼青光眼患者应用眼科电生理仪、眼底照相、视野和OCT,根据P-VEP、眼底照相、OCT、视野检查结果的阳性率进行相关性分析。结果:患者83例95眼中,视野检查成功获取阳性病例图像73眼(76.8%),无法获取图像22眼(23.2%);眼底照像成功获取阳性病例图像75眼(78.9%),无法获取图像20眼(21.1%);获得P-VEP阳性病例47眼(49.5%),未见明显异常26眼(27.3%),无法采集图像22眼(23.2%);成功获取OCT阳性病例图像81眼(85.3%),无法获取OCT图像14眼(14.7%)。结论:视觉诱发电位、眼底照相、视野和光学相干断层图像结果对青光眼患者的视功能状况进行综合评估。

简介:亚洲神经眼科协会(ASNOS)于2002年在日本东京成立。由亚洲神经眼科协会每两年主办一次的亚洲神经眼科大会是一个大型国际神经眼科会议,代表了亚洲神经眼科基础研究及临床研究的最高水平。历届会议都有数百名各国神经眼科专业人士进行学术交流,对国际最近神经眼科新技术及学术前沿进行介绍及讨论。亚洲神经眼科大会提供了一个国际化平台,让世界各地的参会者对前沿的神经眼科研究课题交流想法,探讨最新进展及促进未来的合作。在亚洲神经眼科大会中一个尤其出名且重要的病例讨论版块“WalshinAsia”,选取各国出色的带病理结果的病例进行深入剖析,非常具有挑战性。
