Özet
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the pupillary light reflex measured with dynamic pupillometry in patients who underwent retinal laser photocoagulation due to unilateral retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Methods: A total of 48 patients with unilateral RVO were included in the study. Thirty-four patients had undergone retinal laser photocoagulation while the remaining 14 patients that did not undergo laser treatment were observed for control purposes. Of the laser-treated eyes, 14 eyes (41.2%) had central RVO (CRVO) and 20 eyes (58.8%) had branch RVO (BRVO). Among the 14 patients with RVO without laser treatment, nine eyes (64.3%) had CRVO and five eyes (35.7%) had BRVO. Pupillary light reflexes were assessed with dynamic pupillometry (MonPackOne (R); Metrovision, France). The parameters of the eyes with RVO were compared with that of fellow healthy eyes. Results: Mean patient age was 65.8 +/- 10.4 years and median time after photocoagulation was 25.5 months. Eyes that received laser photocoagulation had lower pupil contraction amplitude (p = 0.037), prolonged contraction latency (p = 0.027), slower contraction velocity (p = 0.043), and slower dilation velocity (p < 0.001) compared to healthy fellow eyes. Subgroup analysis revealed that eyes with CRVO had lower contraction amplitude (p = 0.013) and slower dilation velocity (p = 0.003), and eyes with BRVO had slower dilation velocity (p = 0.003). Non-laser-treated eyes with RVO revealed no significant difference in any of the pupillary light reflex parameters compared to fellow eyes. Conclusion: Laser-treated eyes with RVO demonstrated changes in pupillary light reflex parameters including reduced contraction amplitude, prolonged contraction latency, and slower contraction and dilation velocities measured with dynamic pupillometry.
