Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

1.7K
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Refractive Surgery
  • Cataract Surgery

Background:

  • Corneal inlays are implanted to correct presbyopia.
  • Cataract development can occur in patients with prior corneal inlay implantation.
  • Management of cataract in such patients requires careful consideration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of successful cataract surgery in a patient with a corneal inlay.
  • To evaluate visual outcomes after cataract surgery with an intact corneal inlay.

Main Methods:

  • A 48-year-old female patient with bilateral cataracts and a history of corneal inlay implantation for presbyopia.
  • Biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation performed with the inlay in situ.
  • Standard phacoemulsification and IOL insertion performed in both eyes.

Main Results:

  • The patient achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/20 and uncorrected near visual acuity of J1 binocularly on postoperative day one.
  • Visual acuity remained stable throughout the one-year follow-up period.
  • No complications related to the corneal inlay were observed.

Conclusions:

  • Cataract surgery can be safely performed in patients with corneal inlays.
  • Standard surgical techniques are effective.
  • Satisfactory visual outcomes for both distance and near vision are achievable.
