Abstract

Commentry on the Efficacy of Lens Removal Plus IOL Implantation for the Treatment of Spherophakia with Secondary Glaucoma

Yi Lu and Jin Yang

Glaucoma is the most important cause of permanent visual loss in spherophakia. Determining an appropriate procedure for the management of glaucoma in spherophakia is difficult. Lens removal plus intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, offering a feasible approach for thoroughly relieving the crowding anterior chamber, is effective in both controlling intraocular pressure (IOP) and correcting lenticular myopia.
