This article is a systematic review of evidence regarding the impact of different lighting conditions on the vision and quality of life (QoL) of people with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). A systematic literature search was carried out using CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycARTICLES, PsycINFO, Embase, and Ovid Nursing Database for studies: published up to April 2019; including people diagnosed with POAG; and assessing visual function or QoL in response to changing lighting/luminance levels or glare. Two researchers independently screened studies for eligibility. Data were extracted from eligible studies regarding study design, participant characteristics, outcomes, and results. Quality of included studies was critically appraised. Of 8437 studies, 56 eligible studies were included. Studies investigated the effects of lighting on the following domains among people with POAG: QoL (18/56), psychophysical measures (16/56), functional vision (10/56), activities of daily living (10/56), and qualitative findings (2/56). POAG negatively affects low-luminance contrast sensitivity, glare symptoms, and dark adaptation time and extent. In vision-related QoL questionnaires, people with POAG report problems with lighting, glare, and dark adaptation more frequently than any other domain. These problems worsen with progressing visual field loss. Early-stage POAG patients experience significantly more difficulties in low-luminance or changing lighting conditions than age-matched controls (AMCs), challenging perceptions of early-stage POAG as asymptomatic. However, performance-based studies seldom show significant differences between POAG participants and AMCs on tasks simulating daily activities under non-optimal lighting conditions. Further research with larger samples is required to optimise ambient and task-oriented lighting that can support patients’ adaptation to POAG. 本篇文章是关于不同照明条件对原发性开角型青光眼 (POAG) 患者视力和生活质量影响的研究的系统回顾。研究对CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycARTICLES, PsycINFO, Embase and Ovid Nursing Database六个数据库进行系统文献检索, 截止发表日期为2019年4月。检索内容包括诊断为POAG的患者, 在变换照明设备/光照水平或炫光的情况下评估人群的视功能和生活质量。两名研究者独立筛选符合标准的受试者。从实验设计, 入选者标准, 结果与结论中挑选合格的研究并提取数据。入选研究的质量经过了严格的评估。 在8437项研究中, 共有56项研究符合入选标准。在POAG患者中调查光照对以下因素的影响: 生活质量 (18/56),心理物理学干预 (16/56), 功能性视力 (10/56), 日常活动 (10/56) 和定性发现 (2/56)。 POAG会影响患者的低亮度对比敏感度, 炫光症状, 暗适应的时间和程度。在视觉生活质量调查问卷中, 根据POAG患者反馈, 照明设备, 炫光和暗适应的问题较其它问题更多见。这些问题随着进行性视野的缺失而严重, 与同年龄对照组相比 (AMC), POAG患者在发病的早期在低亮度和不同亮度切换的环境中会面临更多的困难, 这对之前POAG患者早期阶段没有症状的认知进行了挑战。但是, 基于性能方面的研究很少显示POAG参与者和AMC在模拟非最佳照明条件下日常活动方面有显着差异。 需要对较大的样本进行进一步研究, 以优化环境照明和面向任务的照明, 以支持患者适应POAG。未来亟待大样本的研究为POAG患者提供优化环境和适合工作的照明。
