Congenital Glaucoma
By David F. Chang, MD
Cataract/Anterior Segment
This eye with congenital glaucoma has an extremely large anterior segment. The opposite eye has NLP. One particular challenge in this one-eyed patient is the surgeon is without a good backup plan should the capsular bag become torn. There is no anterior chamber or sulcus IOL sufficiently large for fixation outside the capsular bag. Because of high astigmatism, a toric IOL is planned.
