Purpose: To evaluate the status of intraocular pressure in patients having pseudo exfoliation syndrome. Study Design: Descriptive cross-sectional study. Duration and Place of Study: Department of ophthalmology, Mayo hospital LAHORE from November to March 2019. Methods and materials: This was a comparative cross-sectional study that included 25 patients having pseudo exfoliation syndrome. Out of 25, the 9 were males subjects, and 16 were female. The mean age was 43± 20.2 years. A retrospective plan review was performed on patients with the diagnosis of pseudo exfoliation syndrome who were diagnosed after slit-lamp examination and intraocular pressure was measured by air-puff tonometer and confirmed by Goldmann applanation tonometer. Results: Results showed the male and female ratio, in which females are more prevalent than males i.e. 64% and 36%. It is shown that patients had age 45-60 years were taken. Patients between the age 45-47 years had 12%, patients with the age range of 48-50 years had 12% and the age group of 51-53 years had 36%,54-57 years had 16 % and 58-60 years had 24%. Results showed that the intraocular pressure (IOP) in diagnosed pseudo exfoliation syndrome and it explains the maximum of 17mmhg-19mmhg intraocular pressure in 72% of the patients while 20% patients had 20mmhg-23mmhg and only 08% of the patient had intraocular pressure 14mmhg-16mmhg. Conclusions: It is concluded that pseudo exfoliation syndrome is more common in females as compared to males. Most of the pseudo exfoliation population of my sample size showed intraocular pressure from 17mmhg to 19mmhg.The high iop is seen in patients having age greater than 53 years. Therefore it is also associated with age factor.
