NEURO OPHTHALMOLOGICAL MANIFESTATIONS IN PATIENTS OPERATED FOR CEREBELLOPONTINE ANGLE TUMORS

Journal Title: World Science - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 10

Abstract

The present article is concerned with the study of neuro-ophthalmological manifestations observed in patients with cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumors before surgery and in early postoperative period. Analysis of visometry with correction demonstrated postoperative decrease in visual acuity. 67 patients presented with lagophthalmos at the operated side and biomicroscopy with fluorescein test showed signs of epitheliopathy. 73.1% of patients had reduced corneal sensitivity in eyes affected with lagophthalmos. Tear production and tear film break-up time significantly decreased (p<0.05). In early postoperative period, the number of patients with normal ocular fundus increased (48.9% versus 42.7% before surgery (р<0.05). More patients presented with oculomotor disturbances, and in 78.2% of patients, the functional status remained high.
