Changes in Optic Nerve Head Vessel Density After Acute Primary Angle Closure Episode.

Vessel density decreased over 6 weeks after an APAC episode compared with the contralateral unaffected eyes. In contrast, there was an initial increase in RNFL thickness that was followed by a subsequent decrease.

Combined glaucoma and cataract surgery: Comparison of viscocanalostomy, endocyclophotocoagulation, and ab interno trabeculectomy.

All procedures significantly lowered IOP. Phacoemulsification-ab interno trabulectomy resulted in fewest complications and phacoviscocanalostomy led to the largest IOP drop and largest reduction of medications.

Phacoemulsification Versus Combined Phacoemulsification and Viscogonioplasty in Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Phaco alone and Phaco-VGP resulted in widening of the drainage angle, reduction of IOP, and PAS extent in PACG eyes.
