      Angle-closure glaucoma: occurs when the iris bulges forward, narrowing (narrow-angle glaucoma) or closing the angle formed by the cornea and the iris keeping the aqueous humor from draining properly or at all; can occur abruptly (acute angle-closure) or gradually (chronic angle-closure) Low-tension glaucoma

      Secondary angle closure glaucoma due to anterior chamber shallowing. Reported side effects are headaches, eye pain, and decreased acuity. Ultrasonography has shown choroidal effusion, choroidal detachment, ciliary body edema, which can cause anterior displacement of lens and iris leading to shallow anterior chamber=angle closure=IOP increase

      Angle-closure glaucoma (also called “closed-angle glaucoma” or “narrow-angle glaucoma”) This type happens when someone’s iris is very close to the drainage angle in their eye. The iris can end up blocking the drainage angle. You can think of it like a piece of paper sliding over a sink drain. When the drainage angle gets completely ...

      Angle-closure glaucoma. Also called acute or chronic angle-closure or narrow-angle glaucoma, this type of glaucoma is less common, but can cause a sudden buildup of pressure in the eye. Drainage may be poor because the angle between the iris and the cornea (where a drainage channel for the eye is located) is too narrow.

      Acute angle closure glaucoma is far less common that chronic open angle glaucoma, but it is a medical (and ophthalmological) emergency (to get the pressure down); Manifestations of acute angle closure glaucoma include SEVERE unilateral headache (about the affected eye); note that acute glaucoma is usually unilateral); the patient is .

      Primary closed angle glaucoma (PCAG) / primary angle closure glaucoma (PAGC) is significantly associated with defective development of the drainage angle which is termed goniodysgenesis (gonio = angle, dysgenesis = defective development), also known as Pectinate Ligament Dysplasia (PLD) or Pectinate Ligament Abnormality (PLA).

      Glaucoma may occur at a younger age without angle-closure, secondary to congenital abnormalities of the anterior chamber angle. In older patients, filtration surgery is the procedure of choice. Goniotomy or trabeculotomies frequently do not work in older children because of the extensive angle-closure.

      The aim of this treatment is to prevent very high eye pressure caused by angle-closure, so reducing the risk of sight loss from glaucoma. If performed early in patients with narrow angles, the chance of successfully preventing angle-closure is between 66 -75 per cent. In more advanced cases, medications and/or surgery may also be required.
