As with open angle glaucoma, the aim of treatment is to lower the intraocular pressure. In addition, it is also important to open up the anterior chamber drainage angle, i.e. re-open the closed angle. The first line treatment for angle closure islaser iridotomywhich creates a full-thicknes...

The meaning of OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA is a progressive form of glaucoma in which the channel formed between the iris and the cornea remains open and tissue changes along the channel gradually reduce drainage of the aqueous humor through the trabecular meshw
