Resumen

Importancia clínica: El glaucoma engloba un grupo de enfermedades oculares que dañan progresivamente el nervio óptico, provocando pérdida de visión y ceguera. Conocer su incidencia y distribución demográfica es vital para la planificación de la salud pública y la atención a los pacientes. Antecedentes: Estudios previos a pequeña escala en Colombia han reportado la prevalencia de glaucoma en individuos mayores de 40 años entre 1,1% y 5,29%. Es posible que estos datos no reflejen plenamente la verdadera magnitud de la enfermedad. Además, con el envejecimiento de la población, es probable que aumente la incidencia del glaucoma, lo que pone de relieve la necesidad de disponer de datos actualizados sobre la incidencia para orientar la planificación de la atención sanitaria. Métodos: Los datos se obtuvieron del Sistema de Información de la Protección Social, el principal repositorio de registros de salud de Colombia, utilizando la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades 10 para el glaucoma. Se calcularon las tasas de incidencia brutas y se ajustaron por sexo, edad y género. La incidencia de 2020 se comparó con las tasas estimadas de años anteriores para evaluar el impacto del cierre por enfermedad por coronavirus de 2019. Se creó un mapa de morbilidad estandarizado para mostrar las variaciones regionales. Resultados: La incidencia promedio de glaucoma en Colombia fue de 17,36 por 1.000 habitantes, aumentando de 12,29 en 2015 a 24,22 en 2019. De los 212.700 casos reportados, el 60,75% fueron mujeres. El glaucoma primario de ángulo abierto fue el tipo más prevalente, con una incidencia significativa en los ancianos mayores de 70 años, independientemente del sexo. Bogotá, Antioquia y Valle del Cauca presentaron el mayor número de casos nuevos. Conclusiones: La creciente incidencia del glaucoma y sus variaciones demográficas y geográficas hacen necesaria la sensibilización de oftalmólogos y optómetras. Este estudio hace hincapié en la necesidad de un seguimiento continuo, intervenciones eficaces y el desarrollo de estrategias de atención sanitaria para hacer frente al creciente desafío del glaucoma en Colombia.
