Ocular perfusion in primary angle-closure suspect and primary angle-closure eyes without prior acute angle closure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute intraocular pressure (IOP) spike in acute primary angle closure (APAC) decreases ocular blood flow. It is not known if this is true in primary angle-closure (PAC) eyes without prior APAC who may have had subacute attacks.

Differences in Screening Indicator Performance for Primary Angle Closure and Primary Angle Closure Diseases: The Handan Eye Study [PDF]
Objective: Primary angle closure disease (PACD) has long been the focus of screening, yet most cases are nonprogressive. In contrast, primary angle closure with or without glaucoma (PAC/G) poses greater risk and may deserve more attention.

Association of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) Variants with Primary Angle Closure and Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma. [PDF]
Shorter axial length observed in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) might be due to altered matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) activity resulting in ECM remodeling during eye growth and development.
