چکیده
Lens induced glaucoma is one of the important cause of secondary glaucoma in our population. Retrospective analysis of 40 cases of lens induced glaucoma presenting to Nepal Eye Hospital from January 2002 to December 2004 were analyzed to find the prevalence of sex, age, visual outcome, IOP control, and duration between appearance of symptoms and surgical invention. Females out numbered male (55:45 percent). Phacomorphic glaucoma was seen more than phacolytic type (65:35). Visual recovery was good in 45% cases (6/12-6/60) and moderately fair in 30% cases (VA <6/60). Preoperative IOP ranged from 24.0-59.0 mmHg. Postoperative IOP ranged from 14-22 mmHg. Duration between symptoms and surgery was 1 week to 4 months.
