Factors correlating with failure to control intraocular pressure in primary angle-closure glaucoma eyes with coexisting cataract treated by phacoemulsification or combined phacotrabeculectomy.

Purpose: To identify clinical factors correlating with failure to control intraocular pressure (IOP) in primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) eyes with cataract after phacoemulsification or phacotrabeculectomy.

Design: Retrospective analysis of two prospective randomized controlled clinical trials.

Methods: Primary angle-closure glaucoma eyes with cataract received phacoemulsification or phacotrabeculectomy.
