ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
This study aimed to examine the performance of binocular chromatic pupillometry for the objective and rapid detection of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and to explore the association between pupillary light response (PLR) features and structural glaucomatous macular damage.METHODS:
Forty-six patients (mean age 41.00 ± 13.03 years) with POAG and 23 healthy controls (mean age 42.00 ± 11.08 years) were enrolled. All participants underwent sequenced PLR tests of full-field, superior/inferior quadrant-field chromatic stimuli using a binocular head-mounted pupillometer. The constricting amplitude, velocity, and time to max constriction/dilation, and the post-illumination pupil response (PIPR) were analyzed. The inner retina thickness and volume measurements were determined by spectral domain optical coherence tomography.RESULTS:
In the full-field stimulus experiment, time to pupil dilation was inversely correlated with perifoveal thickness (r = - 0.429, P < 0.001) and perifoveal volume (r = - 0.364, P < 0.001). Dilation time (AUC 0.833) showed good diagnostic performance, followed by the constriction amplitude (AUC 0.681) and PIPR (AUC 0.620). In the superior quadrant-field stimulus experiment, time of pupil dilation negatively correlated with inferior perifoveal thickness (r = - 0.451, P < 0.001) and inferior perifoveal volume (r = - 0.417, P < 0.001). The dilation time in response to the superior quadrant-field stimulus showed the best diagnostic performance (AUC 0.909). In the inferior quadrant-field stimulus experiment, time to pupil dilation (P < 0.001) correlated well with superior perifoveal thickness (r = - 0.299, P < 0.001) and superior perifoveal volume (r = - 0.304, P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
The use of chromatic pupillometry offers a patient-friendly and objective approach to detect POAG, while the impairment of PLR features may serve as a potential indicator of structural macular damage.
