Evaluation of Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma Susceptibility Loci in Patients with Early Stages of Angle-Closure Disease.

In this study, 2 of 8 PACG-associated loci were associated significantly with PACS status, the earliest stage in the angle-closure glaucoma disease course.

Characteristics of the Corneal Endothelium Across the Primary Angle Closure Disease Spectrum.

The corneal ECD and morphological characteristics such as CV and hexagonality are not significantly different across the PAC disease spectrum.

Intraocular pressure change after phacoemulsification in angle-closure eyes without medical therapy.

The mean IOP reduction 6 months after phacoemulsification was 20%. Less IOP reduction was observed in the presence of lower preoperative IOP and more extensive PAS.

Anterior Chamber Angle and Intraocular Pressure Changes After Phacoemulsification: A Comparison Between Eyes With Closed-angle and Open-angle Glaucoma.

Angle opening postphacoemulsification was considerable in all eyes. A similar IOP reduction after phacoemulsification was observed in all eyes regardless of angle status.
