Abstrakt: Purpose: To determine the associations between the demographic factors (age and sex) and physiological dynamic iris changes and explore the associated factors for iris cross-sectional area (IA) change in healthy Chinese individuals.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included individuals aged ≥40 years with an open angle and underwent anterior segment optical coherence tomography under light and dark conditions from the follow-up cohort of the Handan Eye Study. Ocular data from the right eye were analyzed. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess the relationship between age and iris parameters, including iris thickness (IT), IA, and iris curvature (IC), as well as the pupil diameter (PD) in the dark, and their changes from light to dark conditions. Linear regression analysis was performed to identify the potential factors associated with IA change.
Results: The final analysis included 465 healthy individuals. PD in dark, IA change and PD change decreased with age (P < 0.001), whereas IC increased with age (P < 0.001). IT and IT change were smaller, and IC was larger in women than that in men (P = 0.021, 0.007, and 0.010, respectively). Older age (P = 0.041), larger lens thickness (P = 0.013), larger IC change (P < 0.001), and smaller PD change (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with a smaller IA change.
Conclusions: Our study demonstrated the associations of static and dynamic iris parameters in healthy Chinese individuals. The findings provided a possible explanation for the higher prevalence of primary angle closure disease in elderly and female populations.
