Abstract：ObjectiveTo explore appropriate method of identification of primary iridociliary cysts (PIC) in the pilot candidates during physical examination.MethodsA total of 7 813 high school and college students (15 626 eyes) were examined by slit-lamp at the final physical examination for pilot candidate selection. The gonioscope was selectively applied only if a confined peripheral iris bulging appeared. The number and sites of PIC, changes of eye chamber and depth of anterior eye chamber axis were observed and recorded.Results124 cases (142 eyes) of PIC were found accounting for 1.59% of the total candidates. 85.48% of them were found in one eye and 78.87% were found in single occurrence. 74.86% were located bitemporally and inferiorly. 54.19% were found with corner changes.ConclusionSlit-lamp exam is basically enough for identification of PIC in the physical examination of pilot candidate selection.
