Neovascular Glaucoma after Ischemic CRVO (Colour Image)

Neovascular Glaucoma after Ischemic CRVO (Colour Image)
Male, 51 years of age, BCVA Light Perception, IOP 52 mmHg Neovascular glaucoma with an intraocular pressure of 52 mmHg after ischemic central retinal vein occlusion. The colour image showing an iris neovascularization. The resulting secondary glaucoma is due to a formation of a fibrovascular membrane on the anterior surface of the iris (rubeosis iridis). The membrane extends into the chamber angle and leads to irreversible obliteration of the outflow system, with a corresponding rise in intraocular pressure.
