ABSTRAK

 

Satu kajian retrospektif telah dilakukan untuk mengenal pasti taburan tekanan intraokular di kalangan pesakit yang datang untuk mendapatkan khidmat nasihat masalah penglihatan di Klinik Optometri Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Kampus Kuala Lumpur, dan juga untuk mengenal pasti hubungan intraokular dengan umur, bangsa dan jantina. Kumpulan yang diselidik terdiri daripada 148 orang subjek, yang dibahagikan kepada lima kumpulan yang berumur di antara 10 hingga 59 tahun. Kriteria kemasukan ialah tidak mempunyai penyakit okular atau sistemik, subjek tidak mengambil sebarang ubatan, akuiti visual ialah 6/6 atau lebih baik, ralat refraksi < 6.00D, astigmatisme < 2.00D, anisometropia < 2.00D, dan purata tekanan intraokular diukur dengan menggunakan tonometer X-PERT dan tekanan intraokular diukur pada jam 9 pagi hingga ke 2 petang. Analisis statistik (ANOVA) menunjukkan purata tekanan intraokular tanpa mengira umur, bangsa dan jantina ialah 12.6 mmHg (SP ±2.5). Tidak ada perbezaan bererti didapati antara mata kanan dan mata kiri, antara umur yang berlainan dan di antara jantina yang berbeza. Namun purata tekanan intraokular bagi kaum Cina adalah lebih tinggi secara signifikan berbanding kaum Melayu. Tekanan intraokular subjek yang datang ke Klinik Optometri UKM didapati tertabur secara normal dan tiada kaitan di antara tekanan intraokular dengan umur dan jantina. Kelainan bangsa mempunyai pengaruh terhadap tekanan intraocular.

ABSTRACT

 

A retrospective study was carried out to determine the distribution of intraocular pressure in normal patients who came for vision problems at the Optometry Clinic, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) Kuala Lumpur Campus, and to determine the differences in intraocular pressure with respect to age, gender and race. The cohort consisted of 148 subjects divided into five groups with age ranged from 10 to 59 years. The inclusion criteria were, subjects had no sistemic or ocular disease, subjects were not taking any medication, visual acuity was 6/6 or better, refractive errors < ±6.00D, astigmatism < 2.00D, anisometropia <2.00D, and mean intraocular pressure measured using the X-PERT tonometer and taken between 9 am to 2 pm. Statistical analysis (ANOVA) showed the mean intraocular pressure without consideration for age, race or gender was 12.6 mmHg (SD ±2.5). There was no significant differences in intraocular pressure between right and left eyes, between different age groups and between different genders. However, the intraocular pressuse for the Chinese was found to be significantly higher than the Malays. It was found that the intraocular pressure of patients who came for vision problems at the Optometry Clinic UKM follows a normal distribution and there was no significant diference found between right and left eyes, between different age groups and genders. Race seemed to contribute to the differences in intraocular pressure.
