Pupil size differences between female and male patients after cataract surgery.

摘要: Abstract Purpose To evaluate the changes in pupil diameter women and men after cataract surgery. The correlation of pupillary with variables age anterior chamber depth will be analyzed. Methods values 109 randomized eyes who underwent surgery were obtained divided into two groups, 71 38 men. Pupil was measured preoperatively 3-months postoperatively using pupillometer software Topolyzer Vario (Wavelight Laser Technologie AG). Anterior Pentacam® (Oculus). Differences diameters investigated correlations Results For mesopic pupils, male group had greater reduction their postoperative diameter, −0.56 mm (−12.4%), than female group, −0.38 mm (−8.2%), P = 0.025. Photopic pupils reduced to a lesser extent, yet more (−0.11mm [−4.5%] vs. −0.04 [−1.6%], P = 0.048). Weak significant negative found between photopic (r = −0.24, P = 0.041), positive for (r = +0.34, P = 0.039). Conclusions Patients experience general, but both lighting conditions. differences are statistically have moderate clinical relevance. Concerning changes, weak opposite sign male/female gender age.
