Hemolytic glaucoma.

C D Phelps, R C Watzke

    American Journal of Ophthalmology
    |October 1, 1975

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Hemolytic glaucoma, occurring after intraocular hemorrhage, involves red blood cell debris blocking the trabecular meshwork. Surgical irrigation of this debris effectively treated patients unresponsive to medication.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Glaucoma Research

    Background:

    • Hemolytic glaucoma is a rare form of secondary glaucoma.
    • It is often associated with intraocular hemorrhage events.

    Observation:

    • Clinical examination of five patients revealed glaucoma onset post-intraocular hemorrhage.
    • Gonioscopy showed open anterior chamber angles with pigment on the trabecular meshwork.
    • Aqueous humor contained red blood cells and pigment-laden macrophages.

    Findings:

    • Hemolytic glaucoma is presumed to result from trabecular meshwork obstruction.
    • Obstruction is caused by hemolyzed red blood cell fragments and macrophages.
    • Cytologic examination confirmed golden-brown pigment granules within macrophages.

    Implications:

    • Early identification and management of hemolytic glaucoma are crucial.
    • Surgical intervention, like anterior chamber irrigation, can be effective.
    • Understanding the pathophysiology aids in developing targeted treatments for glaucoma.
