A Randomised Comparison of Two Laser Iridotomy Techniques in Patients of Primary Angle Closure Disease with Absent Iris Crypts

open access: yesDelhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
Purpose: Patients with absent iris crypts are the most challenging cases for performing laser peripheral iridotomy. This study was conducted on patients of primary angle closure disease belonging to this group to find out the difference in the quantum of

The effectiveness of early lens extraction with intraocular lens implantation for the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (EAGLE): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Although primary open-angle glaucoma is more common, primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is more likely to result in irreversible blindness.

Laser peripheral iridotomy versus laser peripheral iridotomy plus laser peripheral iridoplasty in the treatment of multi-mechanism angle closure: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yesTrials, 2017
China has the largest burden of primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) worldwide. The mechanism of the angle closure is complex and includes pupillary block and non-pupillary block. Currently, opinion is that laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) alone is not sufficient to prevent disease progression. Laser peripheral iridoplasty (LPIP) is an alternative and

Treat the individual and not the angle

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology
Background: Glaucoma, the silent thief of sight, is one of the most common vision-threatening conditions. Even though POAG (primary open angle glaucoma) is more common, PACG (primary angle closure glaucoma) is the dreaded variant.
