Purpose. To evaluate outcomes of peripheral iridotomy (PI) for initial management of primary angle closure suspects (PACS), chronic primary angle closure (CPAC), and chronic primary angle closure glaucoma (CPACG). Patients and Methods. Seventy-nine eyes with PACS, CPAC, or CPACG and better than 20/50 visual acuity that underwent PI as initial management were included. Eyes with previous acute a...

PURPOSE This study investigates the inflammation in the anterior chamber in eyes with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and evaluates the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation on the blood-aqueous barrier (BAB). METHODS Thirty-five patients (35 eyes) with acute primary angle closure glaucoma (APACG), 42 patients (42 eyes) with chronic primary angle closure glaucoma (CPACG), and 5...

Secondary angle closure glaucomas are a distinct entity from primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). Unlike PACG, secon­ dary angle closure glaucoma’s have an identifiable contributory factor/s for angle closure and obstruction of aqueous flow which is usually unrelieved by iridotomy. The treatment of each type of secondary angle closure glaucoma is varied, so identification of the primary cause...

BACKGROUND Angle closure glaucoma is emerging as a leading cause of blindness in Asia. OBJECTIVE To compare the ocular axial length of normal individuals and the subjects with primary angle closure glaucoma. This study has been conducted to determine axial length of eye as a risk factor of primary angle closure glaucoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study was carried ...

PURPOSE To determine the incidence of the primary angle-closure glaucoma at the Glaucoma Service of São Geraldo Hospital, to establish the profile of these patients and to identify the possible risk factors. METHODS Transversal study. Period of assessment: from September/2005 to August/2006. INCLUSION CRITERIA diagnosis of primary angle-closure glaucoma. EXCLUSION CRITERIA presence of cat...

Trabeculectomy surgery has been shown to lower intraocular pressure and is the most commonly performed glaucoma procedure worldwide. However, giving a patient a 'bleb for life' is not without consequences and the failure of trabeculectomy to control IOP in the long term is well documented. In some instances, such as in patients with exfoliative glaucoma or primary angle closure glaucoma, catara...

Surgical outcomes of phacoemulsification only and phacoemulsification combined with trabeculectomy were compared in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). Clinical records of 41 consecutive patients were retrospectively reviewed, and there was no difference in best-corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure preoperatively and at the final follow-up in both study groups. Rega...

For the past 12 years peripheral iridectomy has been used as the initial surgical procedure after an acute attack of angle-closure glaucoma. The operation has been performed 2 to 5 days after the pressure has been controlled medically and has been followed routinely by prophylactic peripheral iridectomy in the fellow eye. Peripheral iridectomy for primary acute angle-closure glaucoma controlled...

A 62-year-old woman presented with acute angle closure glaucoma. After a poor response to conventional treatment the presenting signs were re-evaluated and a diagnosis of pseudotumour of the orbit was made. Treatment with oral steroids resolved both the glaucoma and the orbital pseudotumour. The presumed pathogenesis and literature are reviewed.
