Secondary Angle Closure Glaucoma in Weill-Marchesani Syndrome.

We report a case of a 16-year-old girl presenting to our clinic with decreased visual acuity and increased intraocular pressure in both eyes. The ophthalmological examination revealed best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 0.3 in the right eye (R.

The Mirror Theory: Parallels between Open Angle and Angle Closure Glaucoma.

Glaucoma is a widespread ophthalmological disease, with a high impact and frequent visual morbidity. While the physiopathology of the two types of primary glaucoma (open angle and angle closure) has been studied, there seems to be little relationship between the two. In this study, we gather clinical and preclinical data to support the idea that the two primary glaucomas are "mirrored" in terms of morphological parameters and disease physiopathology.

Challenges of Secondary Glaucoma Management Following Congenital Cataract Surgery, Penetrating Keratoplasty and Vitreoretinal Surgery.

Glaucoma is one of the world's leading causes of irreversible vision loss. It is often asymptomatic until it reaches an advanced stage, which can have a significant impact on patients' daily lives. This paper describes the case of a 50-year-old female patient who presented with acute onset of ocular pain, photophobia, and loss of visual acuity in her right eye (RE).

Corneal biomechanical properties in myopic and emmetropic children.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between corneal biomechanics and ocular morphology in myopic children and adolescents.

Patients And Methods: The study included 170 right eyes, from 170 patients under the age of 18 years, who underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination, gathering the following data: spherical equivalent (SE) (under pharmacological cycloplegia), biomechanical parameters - corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF), structural parameters - axial length (AL) and central corneal thickness (CCT).

Results: The average age of the patients was 15.
