Dilation can be safely performed in angle-closure suspects with cataracts

Investigators prospectively evaluated the effects of pupillary dilation on IOP in 78 primary angle-closure suspects with visually significant cataract. Dilation had a low risk for IOP spike; there were no episodes of acute primary angle closure. Nearly all anterior chamber parameters increased after dilation except for lens vault and iris volume, which decreased. A greater increase in anterior chamber depth was associated with less IOP elevation. The researchers conclude that dilation carries a low risk for IOP spike in this patient population, and that anterior chamber depth may help identify patients most at risk for IOP elevation.
