“…The difference between the two groups is statistically significant. 14 In the study done by Sameena Kokab et al, 90% in the group (n=60) with pseudo exfoliation had sensorineural hearing loss in one or both ears compared to 61.6% in the group without pseudoexfoliation (n=60). The difference was statistically significant.…”

“…Research over the past two decades have proved that psuedoexfoliation occurs in different parts of the body like blood vessels, skin, meninges, visceral organs, etc. [4][5][6][7] This indicates that psuedoexfoliation syndrome may indeed be one of the manifestations of a systemic disease. [11][12][13][14][15] Eyes and ears are undoubtedly the most cardinal sense organs of the body.…”

“…16,17 Research done in different ethnic groups have shown an association between pseudoexfoliation syndrome and hearing loss. [4][5][6][7] to our knowledge, only one such study has been conducted so far in India. 7 Psuedoexfoliation syndrome is associated with a higher incidence of secondary glaucoma (psuedoexfoliation glaucoma).…”

The poor pupillary mydriasis, weakness of lens Zonules, increased incidence of vitreous loss and risk of corneal endothelial decompensation make the visual outcome of ocular surgeries, especially cataract surgery in such patients' unpredictable.…”

Aim: to compare the degree of sensorineural hearing loss in patients with and without pseudo exfoliation. Materials and Methods: A comparative study design enrolling 44 patients each with and without pseudoexfoliation was employed. Pure tone audiometry was done to detect sensorineural hearing loss and to quantify the same according to WHO classification. Results: 52.3% of patients in the group with pseudo exfoliation had mild sensorineural hearing loss, i.e., difficulty with faint speech.6.8% had moderate sensorineural hearing loss.40.9% had no significant hearing loss. In the group without pseudo exfoliation, 56.8% had no significant hearing loss while 29.5% had mild sensorineural hearing loss.13.6% had moderate to moderately severe sensorineural hearing loss. Conclusion: There is an increased incidence of hearing impairment in pseudo exfoliation syndrome though not statistically significant.

Hearing Loss in Exfoliation Syndrome: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objective: To determine if exfoliation syndrome (XFS) is associated with hearing loss (HL) or vestibular dysfunction. Data Sources: PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library through April 1, 2022. Review Methods: Two reviewers independently screened abstracts, selected articles for inclusion, and extracted data. Studies included for qualitative analysis conducted audiometric, tympanometric, or vestibular evaluations on all subjects.Results: Twenty-one publications (1148 patients with XFS and 1212 controls) were included in the systematic review, and 16 publications (968 patients with XFS and 1147 controls) in the meta-analysis. Greater severity of HL was seen for patients with XFS compared to controls across all frequencies (odds ratio [OR] 8.8 [7.3-10.2]). Patients with XFS were more likely to have moderate to profound sensorineural HL ), and less likely to have none to mild HL (OR 0.34 [0.17-0.67]) or no HL (OR 0.37 [0.28-0.50]). Three studies found patients with XFS had lower tympanometric peaks. Two studies found that abnormal vestibular testing results could be more common for patients with XFS.Conclusions: HL is associated with XFS. A sensorineural component to HL is confirmed, and mixed HL is possible. Given the high prevalence and infrequent diagnosis of XFS, the authors hypothesize that the current understandings of presbycusis might be improved by further investigation in XFS.

Objective: To study whether there is an increase in the frequency of sensorineural hearing loss among patients suffering from primary open angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation syndrome and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted at the ophthalmology and ENT clinic of prince Ali Bin Al-Hussein military hospital between Jan.2012 and Aug 2013. All patients who attended to the ophthalmology clinic and found to have primary open angle glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation syndrome or pseudoexfoliative glaucoma were referred to the ENT clinic for hearing assessment after performing detailed ophthalmological-examination. Those results were compared with that of a control group. Results: Sensorineural hearing loss was found in 6% of patients in the control group and in 9.7% (p value > 0.05) of patients with primary open angle glaucoma. On the other hand it was found in 34.3 %(p value < 0.05) and 30.3 %(p value < 0.05) among patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation syndrome respectively. Conclusion: This study provides evidence regarding the effect of pseudoexfoliation of the eye and its severity on the frequency of sensorineural hearing loss which in turn suggests that pseudoexfoliation syndrome is a systemic disease which may have otological involvement manifested as sensorineural hearing loss.
