Ophthalmic artery velocimetry in normotensive and preeclamptic women with or without photophobia.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To compare ophthalmic arterial velocimetry in normotensive and preeclamptic gravidas with and without photophobia. METHODS:Ophthalmic arteries were studied by color-flow Doppler ultrasonography in 118 normotensive pregnant women, 20 gravidas with preeclampsia and no visual symptoms, and 11 with preeclampsia, photophobia, and retinal edema. RESULTS:The ophthalmic arterial pulsatility index (PI) correlated negatively with gestational age (y = -0.01x + 1.84, r = -0.41, P<.01). Pulsatility index in preeclamptics with photophobia (0.71+/-0.17) was lowest among the three groups (P<.01) and was highest in normotensive pregnant women (1.41+/-0.21, P<.01). Mean velocity in normotensive pregnant women (0.19+/-0.05 m/second) was highest among the groups (P<.01) and was not significantly different in preeclamptic women with no visual symptoms (0.27+/-0.03 m/second) and with photophobia (0.30+/-0.02 m/second). CONCLUSION:Preeclamptic women, especially those with photophobia, have orbital vascular vasodilation or hyperperfusion, or both.
