Effect of Phacoemulsification on Anterior Chamber Angle in Eyes with Medically Uncontrolled Filtered Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma.
Chengguo ZuoBing LongXinxing GuoLiming ChenXing LiuPublished in: Journal of ophthalmology (2020)
Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation reduced the IOP and improved vision in eyes with medically uncontrolled filtered PACG. The mechanism underlying the outcomes observed following surgery might be related to the anterior chamber deepening, widened drainage angle, and improved aqueous fluid flow to the trabecular meshwork.
