Glaucoma in Sturge-Weber syndrome
Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 1999In glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS), medical treatment often fails to control intraocular pressure, thus requiring surgical intervention that may result in serious complications.Eighteen consecutive patients with SWS were reviewed retrospectively at the King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital. An intraocular pressure less than 20 mm Hg,
