A 69-year-old woman developed acute angle-closure glaucoma 2 weeks after successful transvenous coil embolization of a traumatic carotid-cavernous sinus fistula. The angle-closure glaucoma was precipitated by oculomotor palsy caused by transvenous coil packing of the cavernous sinus. Emergency iridotomy resulted in normalization of the intraocular pressure and restoration of vision. Acute angle-closure glaucoma may develop in association with an oculomotor palsy caused by any etiology, including neurointervention.

Rothschild Foundation Hospital, Institut Français de Myopie, Paris, France.
Background: To assess associations between mortality and major ocular parameters and diseases.
Methods: The population-based Ural Eye and Medical Study (UEMS) and Ural Very Old Study (UVOS) included 5899 individuals (age: 40+ years) and 1526 individuals (age: 85+ years), respectively. Cause-specific mortality was determined using the government regional information and analytical system.

Purpose: To develop an artificial intelligence algorithm to automatically identify the anterior segment structures and assess multiple parameters of primary angle closure disease (PACD) in ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) images.
Design: Development and validation of an artificial intelligence algorithm for UBM images.
Methods: 2339 UBM images from 592 subjects were collected for algorithm development.
Sudden Vision Loss: A Diagnostic Approach.

Vision loss affects more than 7 million Americans and impacts quality of life, independence, social functioning, and overall health. Common and dangerous conditions causing sudden vision loss include acute angle-closure glaucoma, retinal detachment, retinal artery occlusion, giant cell arteritis, and optic neuritis. Acute angle-closure glaucoma features ocular pain, headache, and nausea; treatment includes pilocarpine eye drops, oral or intravenous acetazolamide, and intravenous mannitol.

Purpose: To identify clinical features which may predict the angle status of a large cohort of NVG eyes at the time of diagnosis.
Observations: Chart review was performed for all NVG eyes from 2010 to 2022. Complete angle closure was defined as having >75 % PAS, partial angle closure as having 1-75 % PAS, and open angles as having 0 % PAS.
Prospective study on the role of preoperative mannitol in capsulorhexis and reducing intraoperative complications in primary angle-closure disease surgery.

Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital; Eye Diseases and Optometry Institute; Beijing Key Laboratory of Diagnosis and Therapy of Retinal and Choroid Diseases; College of Optometry, Peking University Health Science Center. Address: No. 11 Xizhimen South Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, China.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of preoperative intravenous mannitol on the capsulorhexis process and intraoperative complications in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG).
Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 65 PACG eyes were randomized into the mannitol and control groups. The capsulorhexis duration, number of forceps grasps, need for viscoelastic re-injection, and intraoperative complications were recorded.
