  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 A 9-year-old boy was referred to us for primary open-angle glaucoma(POAG). He had been treated by inhalation of corticosteroid for attacks of asthema since 4 years before. He had been receiving corticosteroid ointment for atopic dermatitis. We performed trabeculectomy on his left eye for progression of visual field defect 2months and 4 years later. His right eye started to show elevated intraocular pressure(IOP)3 years after his initial visit,occasionally exceeding 30mmHg. IOP in his right eye was generally higher in winter than in summer,averaging 16mmHg in July and 24mmHg in January. In another series of 18 adult eyes of POAG,IOP was significantly higher in winter than in summer with an average difference of 1.2mmHg. The findings show that treatment for glaucoma must be conducted with this seasonal variation in mind.
