摘要

吸烟对整个身体系统的有害影响是众所周知的。然而,对眼睛的影响还不完全清楚,特别是对视网膜和脉络膜的影响。目的探讨吸烟对脉络膜和视网膜神经纤维层厚度的影响。患者和方法本研究纳入50例患者,分为G1组(25例健康个体作为对照组)和G2组(25例连续吸烟2年以上的吸烟者)。所有参与者都通过记录病史进行评估,然后对双眼进行眼部检查。测定裸眼和最佳矫正视力及眼压。采用裂隙灯生物显微检查,观察眼前段有无异常或中膜混浊。随后进行眼底检查和光学相干断层扫描以确定脉络膜厚度(CT)和RNFL厚度。结果吸烟者和非吸烟者在患者年龄、血红蛋白浓度、视力或眼压方面无显著差异。吸烟时间在3到30年之间,每天吸烟的数量在5到30支/天之间。与不吸烟者相比,吸烟者的脉络膜厚度和RNFL厚度显著降低。最后,CT与吸烟持续时间和每日吸烟之间存在显著的负相关。结论吸烟可显著降低CT和RNFL厚度。这种减少可能与吸烟后脉络膜血流量减少有关。

Choroidal and retinal nerve fiber layer thicknesses in smokers
Background Tobacco smoking is known for its deleterious effects on the systems of the whole body. However, the effects on the eye are not fully understood, especially the effects on the retina and choroid. Aim The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of smoking on choroidal and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses. Patients and methods The current work included 50 patients, categorized into G1 (25 healthy individuals as a control group) and G2 (25 smokers, who practiced continuous smoking for >2 years). All participants were assessed by history taking, followed by ocular examination of both eyes. The unaided and best-corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure were determined. The slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination was performed to detect any abnormalities or media opacity of the anterior segment of the eye. It was followed by the fundus examination and optical coherence tomography to determine choroidal thickness (CT) and RNFL thickness. Results No significant differences were reported between smokers and nonsmokers regarding patient age, hemoglobin concentrations, visual acuity, or intraocular pressure. The smoking duration ranged between 3 and 30 years, and the number of daily cigarettes ranged between 5 and 30 cigarettes/day. The choroidal thickness and RNFL thickness were significantly reduced among smokers compared with nonsmokers. Finally, there was a significant, inverse correlation between CT and the smoking duration and daily smoking. Conclusion There was a significant reduction in CT and RNFL thicknesses owing to smoking. This reduction could be associated with reduced blood flow to the choroid following smoking.
