Laser peripheral iridotomy induced changes in eyes with primary angle closure disease [PDF]
Primary angle closure disease (PACD) though less prevalent than primary open angle glaucoma contributes to fifty percent of glaucoma blindness, particularly in the Asian population. Pupillary block is the most common pathology associated with PACD.

Plateau iris syndrome: Epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment: A narrative review
Plateau iris syndrome (PIS) was first coined in 1958 to describe the iris configuration of a patient, 2 years later; the concept of plateau iris was published. In 1992, the anatomic aspects of plateau iris were studied using ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM)
