“…Other findings also of practical importance for the clinician were poor mydriasis and posterior synechiae as well as dispersion of pigment and opening of the anterior lens capsule during cataract ex traction. These observations have also been described by Krause and Tarkkhanen [11] in 1978 and Dark [4] in 1979.…”

“…The present study shows that it is difficult to obtain satisfactory mydriasis in eyes with exfoliation syndrome, which agrees with previous reports (Dark 1979;Tarkanen 1986;Carpel 1988). While the incidence of both cataract and exfoliation syndrome increases with age, these patients often require cataract surgery.…”

The horizontal diameter of the pupil was measured on 20 eyes with exfoliation syndrome and 20 control eyes before and after the instillation of 10% phenylephrine and 4% pilocarpine eye drops. Pupil dilation induced by topical application of the alpha 1 adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine was significantly smaller in eyes with exfoliation syndrome compared to controls. The cholinergic agonist pilocarpine decreased pupil diameter and this effect was significantly less in cases with exfoliation syndrome. We conclude from these data that the pharmacological response to both adrenergic and cholinergic stimulation is weaker in eyes with exfoliation syndrome compared to controls.

“…However, the re ports mostly relate to embryology [1], pathol ogy [2,3], intraocular pressure (IOP) [4,5], ciliary body [6,7] and complications of cat aract extraction surgery [8]; thus, the research is largely based on clinical [4,5,[8][9][10] and histological methods [2,3].…”

Intraocular Muscle Function in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Pseudoexfoliation (PE) material has been studied pathologically. However, there are no reports about intraocular muscle function in pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS). We studied intraocular muscle function in 12 patients (70.3 ± 10.1 years of age) with ipsilateral PE material by measuring the time course of pupillary diameter change and accommodogram. Initial intraocular pressure (16.3 ± 4.2 mmHg) was significantly higher in eyes with PXS than in normal fellow eyes (13.1+3.5 mm Hg). The pupillary diameter of an affected eye was smaller than that of a fellow eye after bilateral topical application of tropicamide. Continuous near-point testing revealed no significant difference; accommodative contractile time, relaxation time, and/or accommodopattern showed different patterns from the fellow eye. The results suggest that intraocular muscle function is disturbed in PXS.
